Bulwarks of science diplomacy under attack? The role of international research infrastructures in current geopolitics - International Science Council
From CERN to ITER, international research infrastructures have long symbolized what global cooperation in science can achieve, even in times of deep political tension. In this guest op-ed, Jan Marco Müller examines how these “lighthouses of science diplomacy” are now navigating growing geopolitical pressures, and what they can do to preserve collaboration and trust across borders.

6 and 9 August 1945. Hiroshima and Nagasaki vanished in a flash, and more than 200,000 lives were lost in just a few days: civilians, families, entire neighbourhoods.
These remain the only nuclear attacks in history.
Eighty years later, the silence still burns.
