india. by selfies. well. it's good to have you with us the world is closer now to war and nuclear weapons being used than at any time since world war 2 that's the assessment of u.n. officials. and security issues the u.n. institute for design says that states with nuclear weapons modernizing their. control is changing but that isn't the only change today 9 countries are in the so-called nuclear club. a number of these are located in asia north korea is one of

them the isolated nation has conducted 6 nuclear tests so far this century the arms control association estimates the number of nuclear weapons with pyongyang at around 15 its northern neighbor china has around $280.00 think tank stockholm international peace research institute has suggested that beijing is expanding its also to counter threats from the u.s. and india india and has long running toward a total disputes with neighboring pakistan also a nuclear power both countries of comparable austin sizes of around $140.00 warheads the fear is that any escalation could quickly spill over into a nuclear war the un says these developments are cause for concern we've seen real tear ation in the international architecture we have less constraints we have least confidence building mischa's and we want stood in terms

of managing tensions between nuclear arms states at a time when there were more of them and the relationships between each other a more complex goal credible has an over is based in vienna at the vienna center for design moment and nonproliferation she joins me now as it over thanks very much for joining us now based on the research that you've conducted sold off do you find that nuclear weapons are be used more for strategic diplomacy and potentially the risk of nuclear confrontation may not be that high. hi thanks for having me. well the risk of use of nuclear weapons is very much on the mind of many experts and many governments today which was evident at a recent meeting of state parties to the confession treaty and the reason for that is that there's certainly an increased section of the risk of these nuclear weapons

due to righty or factors one of the key of which is the rising tension between the united states russia now that the the treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons this exists but has not yet been ratified it received only 23 of the 50 ratifications into needs so that it can be enforced why do you think it is missing the ratifications well for it it depends on on the countries right some countries are in the process and and they are going through the mandatory government internal government reviews of how the treaty is compatible with the existing policies of that state some countries are waiting for the signature of the president of the parliament has come through the british and other countries are genuinely reluctant to join a treaty because because they might have doubts about its c.v. because nuclear weapons possesses have expressed a very stern opposition to the treaty and declared that they have no intention of

signing it's in any receive a future or wherever and a lot of the countries don't support the treaty our allies states diggler and they foresee a role for us in national security so be it until they figure out how to sort of back to the security without extend it because it's there and they're simply not there to join a treaty that he was that used session but it's not his 5 of these are the major ny nuclear powers are based in isha do you see the potential miscalculation can spark off our nuclear confrontation in asia. asia certainly figures prominently in recent concerns. increased risk of use of nuclear weapons india and pakistan came very close to fighting again being off this here and so a lot of the fellow experts were on high alert wondering where where could this go

considering that since the last august and has shortened that it was both countries have more nuclear weapons that movement trueness of doctrines and at least one of the countries foresee is the use of nuclear weapons to stop a conventional conflict will escalate and so set certainly the risk of use what is the pursuit of use of nuclear weapons in asia is quite high north korea is not a factor here the country now has nuclear weapons and. has according to many experts a capability to deliver a nuclear weapon to the arsenal you prefer us or in the interaction between the united states and north korea part of which happens on her twitter question for example if there is a riot or war breaking up eventually on person no one wants that gawker mahasen or thank you very much for speaking to us thank you. to thailand next for the political deadlock from its disputed election continues no single party managed to

secure an absolute majority and that's thrown the field open to possible coalitions what is clear however is that the political landscape is changing former prime minister thaksin shinawatra thai party which once dominated thai politics failed to form a government it did win the most seats but lost support and it's hotter than voters in the north of the country that's because the probably neutral party and its supporters have made inroads there the military junta seized in the country in a coup back in 20145 years later its support is growing and smaller parties have alter most onto the scene. travelled upcountry to find out how the lines of class and geography in thailand are shifting. from welcome to texan country northern thailand agricultural rural and home to former prime minister texan sure one's political base for years texan affiliated parties like tiny to talk of the
