Avoiding the Nuclear Edge

The threat of nuclear war has been lurking for decades, kept at bay by outdated safeguards. But things are changing. More countries have nuclear weapons and they're less careful than before. We're on the brink, one mistake away from disaster, yet we're not talking about it enough. The New York Times is diving into this issue, exploring the risks and what can be done to make the world safer. They're starting with a close call involving Russia and the U.S. that could have ended badly. The series aims to understand the new nuclear era and how we can avoid catastrophe. With major arms treaties expiring and new threats emerging, diplomacy seems to be taking a back seat. Leaders are focusing on building advanced weapons instead of talking. The future is uncertain, and we need to start having serious conversations about how to prevent a nuclear war. The stakes are high, and the world is watching.
