Facing Coming Storms #28: Nuclear risks and war planning

Episode description: What if understanding limited nuclear war could prevent global catastrophe? In this episode of Facing Coming Storms, we explore the chilling realities of nuclear risks and war planning with Bob Manning, Senior Research Fellow for Strategic Deterrence at the Heritage Foundation and a veteran of nearly 20 years in the US Department of Defence, and Leo Keay, a PhD candidate and parliamentary researcher.

We explore non-strategic nuclear weapons, escalation scenarios involving Russia and China, NATO’s role, and US deterrence strategies, drawing from their report on learning to navigate the bomb.
