Welcome to 10 minutes on, a podcast from the Joint Public Issues Team (JPIT).

The 5th of March is the International day for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation awareness. 

Steve Hucklesby speaks to JPIT intern Florence about what this means, and 

They mention two treaties, the Nuclear Non-proliferation treaty (NPT, 1968) and the more recent Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW, 2017)

Steve explains the status of these nuclear treaties at this time global tensions with the US, Europe and Russia. The discussion also covers the impact of Trump, implications for the UK and what a christian response could be.
