What is the significance of disarmament policy in these times? Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there has been an increasing debate in Europe about nuclear armament and the need for defense policy autonomy. The panel discussion and third event of the lecture series “Living with the Bomb” of the University Duisburg Essen will focus on Germany and bring together experts from academia and civil society.
