NATO, PUTIN, TRUMP, URGED TO REDUCE NUCLEAR WAR RISKS

 Dear Senator Marise Payne,

I am sending this to you in your capacity as the new minister for Foreign Affairs, not Defence.

As you are no doubt aware, the risk of nuclear war is currently estimated to be as great as it has ever been.

This is surely an issue that makes the issue of who is or isn't PM here in Australia pale into utter insignificance. Nuclear risk reduction is literally a life and death issue for civilisation and the world.

It is however an issue in which Australia can make a difference. 

I do hope you can give this potentially civilisation-ending (and even species-ending) issue the close and sustained attention it deserves.

John Hallam
