The Threat of Nuclear Anarchy with Ambassador Bonnie Jenkins | Global Security Forum 2025

October 20, 2025 – Is the world headed for a new nuclear arms race?

Nuclear risks are rising. At the same time, global nonproliferation efforts are unraveling. A Harvard taskforce warns of a new “era of nuclear anarchy.”

As the temperature of the nuclear threat heats up, we sit down with Ambassador Bonnie Jenkins, former Undersecretary of State for Arms Control & International Security Affairs (2021-2024), for an inside look at these new – and old – threats. Moderated by World Affairs Council of Connecticut CEO Megan Torrey.

This event is part of the 2025 Global Security Forum Series: Unraveling Order. GSF2025 is evolving to reach even more attendees and leaders – and to meet the moment of global uncertainty. Learn more and find the full schedule here.
