In this recent blog post I show how publicly available technologies like satellite imagery and SAR can be used to "fact check" aggressive nuclear rhetoric.

ONP Doctoral Research Fellow @frhoffmann.bsky.social has published a new article in @foreignpolicy.com, examining what a war between NATO and Russia might look like, and what NATO must do to prepare.
While Russia is suffering horrendous casualties in Ukraine and failing by most metrics, European states perceive it as an existential threat—and are frantically preparing for an attack.
In my new piece for @foreignpolicy.com, I make sense of this paradox.

ONP Doctoral Research Fellow @frhoffmann.bsky.social, together with @marksbell.bsky.social, has published a new article in Foreign Affairs examining the implications of a U.S. withdrawal from the European continent for European nuclear deterrence.
New piece out in @foreignaffairs.com by @marksbell.bsky.social and me.
We argue that as the USA pulls back from Europe, including its nuclear arsenal, European leaders face a nuclear trilemma.
