The Bulletin of the atomic scientists Doomsday Clock, an index of the perceived danger of nuclear war, is set at 90 seconds to midnight - the closest it has ever been.
The United Nations Secretary General this month has warned we are on a nuclear “knife-edge.”
How have we got to this point? What can be done to avert disaster? Or is nuclear apocalypse now inevitable?
In this episode of Defence in Depth, Roland Oliphant, a senior foreign correspondent at The Telegraph, explains the return and rise of nuclear diplomacy in the 21st century.

,1,Syrian rebels stormed into the city of Aleppo on Friday in a major advance that sent tremors through the regime of Bashar al-Assad.
The push led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) jihadist group had by Friday evening seized at least five western districts of the city, as government forces appeared to melt away.
