VOV1 - Truyền thông và giới chức Iran hôm qua từng bước xác nhận nước này và Mỹ đang tiến gần đến thỏa thuận kết thúc chiến tranh. Tuy nhiên, Tehran đồng thời cảnh báo văn kiện vẫn chưa được ký kết và hoàn toàn có thể có thay đổi.Tuyên bố trên truyền hình đêm qua, Ngoại trưởng Iran Abbas Araghchi một lần nữa xác nhận hầu hết các điều khoản trong thỏa thuận sơ bộ với Mỹ đã được thống nhất. Theo đó, bản ghi nhớ sắp ký giữa hai bên gồm có mở lại eo biển Hormuz và kết thúc chiến tranh trên tất cả các mặt trận, trong đó có Lebanon. Tuy nhiên, ông Araghchi khẳng định việc quản lý eo Hormuz không thể trở lại như giai đoạn trước khi xung đột bùng phát. Iran và Oman giờ đây có chủ quyền đối với tuyến hàng hải huyết mạch này và cùng có trách nhiệm đảm bảo an toàn cho các tàu thuyền di chuyển qua đây.Đặc biệt, người đứng đầu cơ quan Ngoại giao Iran cảnh báo thỏa thuận vẫn chưa được ký và hoàn toàn có thể bị thay đổi vào phút chót. Nguyên nhân là bởi Israel vẫn đang tìm cách để phá hoại văn kiện này.Trước tuyên bố của Ngoại trưởng Iran, nhà trung gian chủ chốt của tiến trình hòa đàm Mỹ-Iran là Pakistan, cũng xác nhận hai bên đã nhất trí về thỏa thuận cuối cùng. Viết trên mạng xã hội X tối qua, Thủ tướng Pakistan Shebaz Sharif khẳng định hòa bình chưa bao giờ đến gần như lúc này. Pakistan đang phối hợp chặt chẽ với cả hai bên để hoàn tất những bước đi cuối cùng liên quan.Ngay sau thông điệp của Thủ tướng Sharif, Bộ Ngoại giao Pakistan ra tuyên bố cho biết Ngoại trưởng nước này Ishaq Dar đã điện đàm với Ngoại trưởng Thụy Sỹ Ignazio Cassis. Thụy Sỹ là địa điểm dự kiến diễn ra lễ ký thỏa thuận Mỹ-Iran trong cuối tuần này hoặc đầu tuần sau. Tại điện đàm, Ngoại trưởng Thụy Sỹ đánh giá cao nỗ lực trung gian của Pakistan giúp lại giải pháp ngoại giao cho cuộc xung đột Mỹ-Iran.   Trong một diễn biến liên quan đáng chú ý khác, các nguồn tin khu vực tối qua cho biết UAE đã đồng ý gỡ phong tỏa với hàng chục tỷ USD của Iran đang bị đóng băng. Đây là chi tiết chưa từng được tiết lộ trong các thông tin rò rỉ liên quan nội dung thỏa thuận ngừng bắn Mỹ-Iran. Đặc biệt, một số nguồn tin thậm chí còn khẳng định trên thực tế UAE đã chuyển cho Iran hơn 3 tỷ USD trong số này. Tuy nhiên, thông tin chưa được các nguồn chính thức xác nhận.Trước đó, nhiều nguồn tin khu vực tiết lộ thỏa thuận sơ bộ dự kiến giữa Mỹ và Iran, có điều khoản giải phóng số tiền lên tới 24 tỷ USD của Iran trong thời gian đàm phán 60 ngày về thỏa thuận chính thức. Một nửa trong số này được chuyển cho Iran ngay trước khi đàm phán bắt đầu.  Một số nội dung đáng chú ý khác của thỏa thuận sơ bộ theo như tiết lộ, gồm: chấm dứt lập tức và vĩnh viễn chiến tranh trên tất cả các mặt, trong đó có Lebanon; Mỹ cam kết không can thiệp vào công việc nội bộ và tôn trọng chủ quyền của Iran; Mỹ dỡ phong tỏa hải quân và rút các lực lượng ở gần Iran; eo biển Hormuz được mở trở lại trong vòng 30 ngày; đình chỉ các lệnh trừng phạt đối với hoạt động xuất khẩu dầu mỏ của Iran; Tehan cam kết không rút khỏi Hiệp ước NPT về không phổ biến vũ khí hạt nhân… Truyền thông và giới phân tích khu vực đánh giá: nếu nội dung tiết lộ là chính xác, việc ký thỏa thuận sẽ là chiến thắng lớn với Iran./.Bá Thi/ VOV Ai CậpẢnh minh họa

Global Dispatches -- World News That Matters
What is the Future of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty?

Global Dispatches -- World News That Matters

The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is the "glue" that holds the entire global nuclear security architecture together — but is it fraying? I spent much of last month at the United Nations covering the review conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. This is a conference of all members of the NPT that happens every five years. Countries come together to assess progress toward the treaty's goals and plot ways to enhance the treaty's impact and effectiveness in preventing the spread of nuclear weapons, reducing nuclear stockpiles, and supporting the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. That's the idea. But on Friday, as the conference gaveled to a close, the 191 states parties could not come to an agreement. The conference failed to achieve consensus on a way forward for the NPT. And this failure comes amid a host of other challenges in the nuclear security landscape: China's rapid buildup; the end of all bilateral arms control agreements between the United States and Russia; the U.S.-Israel war on Iran; Russia's war on Ukraine; the increasing integration of AI into nuclear weapons systems; and more and more countries openly suggesting that nuclear weapons may be a solution to their security challenges. My interview guest today is Alexandra Bell, head of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists — the organization perhaps best known for the Doomsday Clock. We kick off by discussing what the NPT has achieved since it entered into force more than 50 years ago, and what this major conference at the United Nations suggests about the state of global nuclear security today? This episode is produced in partnership with Ploughshares, a foundation committed to reducing and ultimately eliminating nuclear threats.

After losing four carriers at Midway, Tojo utilized propaganda and censorship to hide the truth from the public. (10/16)Peter Mauch reveals Emperor Hirohito's daily involvement in military details. Tojo suppressed any talk of an exit strategy, though he eventually complied with the sacred decision to surrender after the atomic attacks.

He argues the U.S. must decide whether to target Iranian infrastructure or leadership to resolve the regional security crisis.

The UK faces high taxes, labor unrest, and a socialist agenda that angers the public. (11/16)Gregory Copley discusses King Charles III's delivery of the government's legislative agenda.

VOV1 - Hôm nay 15/5, Chính phủ Hàn Quốc cho biết sẽ công bố kế hoạch và lộ trình cơ bản cho việc chế tạo tàu ngầm hạt nhân vào cuối tháng này. Động thái này được cho là để thúc đẩy thỏa thuận thượng đỉnh Hàn – Mỹ, trong khi quá trình thương nghị với Mỹ về vấn đề này đang bế tắc.Trong kế hoạch cơ bản do Chính phủ Hàn Quốc đang soạn thảo sẽ có một số yếu tố chính như vai trò và nhiệm vụ quốc phòng – quân sự của tàu ngầm hạt nhân, lộ trình chế tạo dự định, nguồn cung và các biện pháp đảm bảo nguồn cung nhiên liệu hạt nhân, những cơ chế chủ yếu nhằm tuân thủ quy định của Hiệp ước Không phổ biến Vũ khí hạt nhân (NPT)…Ý tưởng về đóng tàu ngầm hạt nhân của Hàn Quốc xuất hiện trong giai đoạn từ năm 1993-1998, dưới thời Tổng thống Kim Young-sam, nhưng đã liên tục thất bại trong quá trình hiện thực hóa. Phải cho đến sau hội đàm giữa Tổng thống Hàn Quốc Lee Jae Myung và Tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trump vào tháng 10/2025, mới có những biến chuyển ban đầu và hai bên đã đưa thỏa thuận này vào Tài liệu giải thích chung song phương.Tuy nhiên, sau đó xuất hiện nhiều lực cản lớn khiến quá trình thương nghị về tàu ngầm hạt nhân Hàn – Mỹ lại lâm vào ngõ cụt, trong đó nổi lên một số vấn đề như sự phản đối của phía Mỹ về quá trình điều tra vụ rò rỉ thông tin cá nhân khách hàng của Công ty Coupang - nhà bán lẻ trực tuyến lớn nhất Hàn Quốc, sự chậm trễ trong việc thực hiện cam kết đầu tư vào Mỹ…Trong bối cảnh đó, việc Chính phủ Hàn Quốc công bố kế hoạch và lộ trình cơ bản cho việc chế tạo tàu ngầm hạt nhân được cho là nhằm tạo một cú hích cho dự án có tầm chiến lược quốc tế này.Bên cạnh việc công bố kế hoạch nêu trên, Seoul cũng cho biết đang xem xét đề án đóng 4 tàu ngầm hạt nhân lớp 5.000 tấn vào nửa cuối những năm 2030 và đang thúc đẩy việc xây dựng một bộ luật đặc biệt để chuẩn bị cho cơ chế quản lý việc sử dụng năng lượng nguyên tử cho mục đích quân sự./.VOV Nhật BảnHai nhà lãnh đạo Mỹ và Hàn Quốc gặp gỡ tại Gyeongju chiều 29-10-2025 (ảnh Yonhap News)

The tone is combative, chaotic, and intentionally provocative, with the guests often treating the show like a battleground for exposing liars, calling out institutions, and attacking public figures they believe are corrupt or misleading.A major early thread is the fallout around Jim Fetzer. The show revisits prior conflict, then Fetzer himself calls in, leading to a heated stretch packed with accusations, insults, and bizarre claims about religion, identity, research credibility, and censorship. The hosts frame the call as both a “train wreck” and a revealing example of the type of drama the program thrives on.From there, the discussion broadens into a larger worldview: politicians are portrayed as “selected” rather than elected, media narratives are treated as manipulation, and public systems are described as tools of control. The conversation repeatedly returns to themes of propaganda, mind control, weather warfare, poisoned food and water, transhumanism, and hidden power structures, with the speakers arguing that much of what people believe is engineered to keep them docile or distracted.The political commentary becomes increasingly expansive and intense. Trump, Biden, Kennedy, Obama, and other figures are all discussed through a lens of betrayal, broken promises, or hidden agendas. The conversation also moves into Iran, Israel, Hamas, radical Islam, the NPT, and geopolitical deception, often blending firsthand travel impressions with broad claims about intelligence operations, false flags, and elite influence.The middle and later portions of the show drift deeper into conspiracy heavy territory. The speakers discuss 9/11 inconsistencies, the Smith Mundt Act, Epstein, alleged propaganda systems, alleged state sponsored trauma, Bigfoot, Nephilim, aliens, and claims about staged deaths or media coverups. A number of caller segments amplify the unpredictability, including crude, shocking, and sometimes openly hateful remarks that further intensify the show's chaotic energy.At the same time, there are smaller moments of humanity and relief: a New Zealand caller praises the hosts, some discussion turns to art and creative life, and the host briefly acknowledges technical issues and the length of the program. By the end, the episode feels like a marathon of confrontation, anti establishment ranting, and bizarre freewheeling commentary, ending with thanks to the guests, callers, and audience for sticking through the ride.

The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is the most important and impactful global agreement on nuclear weapons. 191 counties have joined the NPT since it entered into force in 1970, with just a few notable exceptions, including India, Pakistan, Israel and South Sudan. The NPT has three essential pillars: countries that do not have nuclear weapons cannot acquire them; countries that do have nuclear weapons need to work towards disarmament; and countries should have the ability to access civilian nuclear technologies, under proper safeguards. Every five years, the parties to the NPT come together for what is known as a Review Conference in which they assess progress towards these three pillars and discuss ways to enhance the treaty. The NPT RevCon, as it's known, is one the major multilateral conference on nuclear security, and it is taking place at UN from April 27 to May 22. Joining me to discuss the significance of this NPT Review Conference is Kelsey Davenport, Director for Nonproliferation Policy at the Arms Control Association. We kick off with a discussion of the NPT itself, and it's impact over the decades and then have a long conversation about the key storylines, diplomatic intrigues and key policy debates that will unfold over the next three weeks at the UN. Consider this episode your curtain-raiser for the most important global gathering on nuclear security of the half-decade. A few notes. This episode is produced in partnership with Ploughshares, a foundation committed to reducing and ultimately eliminating nuclear threats. I'll have a follow up episode at the end of conference that discusses what exactly happened during the NPT RevCon. Also, I'll be attending much of the RevCon in person. I'll be serving as something akin to a "pool reporter," covering this conference in support of dozens of international journalists who report on nuclear security issues and feeding them news and insights from the confab. This project is backed by the Stanley Center for Peace and Security Developing Story Project, an initiative to support, strengthen, and sustain reporting on nuclear weapons and related issues. I'm looking forward to this. If you are around the UN, say hi.

SCHEDULE THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 4-20-26.1689 ARABIAN PENINSULAThe Fog of Peace and the Strait of Hormuz: The US and Iran are currently in a "fog of peace," where a ceasefire is complicated by a US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Tensions escalated after the US seized an Iranian cargo ship attempting to run the blockade. Negotiations in Islamabad face a massive diplomatic chasm regarding nuclear and missile programs. Bill Roggio (1)The Persistence of Iranian Proxies: Iran has not "turned off" proxies like Hezbollah and Hamas, despite ongoing ceasefire talks. Bill Roggio argues that assassinating leaders is ineffective, as Hezbollah maintains significant power and a plurality in the Lebanese parliament. These groups continue to operate independently to provoke Israel and the surrounding neighborhood. Bill Roggio (2)Navigating Iran's Fractured Leadership: Iran's leadership is currently a faceless structure of five major figures, following the supreme leader's absence. This complicates diplomacy because no single person has decisive say. The regime remains paranoid about appearing weak and is unlikely to make concessions on its nuclear or ballistic missile programs. Jonathan Sayeh (3)Internal Unrest and Chemical WMD Threats: Iran is attempting to incorporate its proxies into diplomatic deals with Washington. Internally, the regime faces unrest in Baluch majority areas and economic grievances. There are alarming reports that the regime has developed aerosolized fentanyl, a chemical weapon intended to suppress domestic protesters with lethal force. Jonathan Sayeh (4)Memorial Day and Iran's Economic Ruin: Israel observes Memorial Day for 27,000 fallen soldiers amid a seven-sided war. In Iran, the economy is collapsing as the IRGC takes control. Despite heavy bombing, the IRGC has reportedly reawakened its missile arsenal to 70% capacity, utilizing underground storage to protect launchers from past Israeli and US strikes. Malcolm Hoenlein (5)Global Terror Cells and the Isaac Accords: Iranian-backed terror cells were discovered in Azerbaijan, the UAE, and Europe targeting synagogues and government facilities. Meanwhile, the "Isaac Accords" between Israel and Argentina, led by Javier Milei, seek to deepen ties in Latin America. Additionally, Turkey is proposing new rail links to bypass strategic maritime choke points. Malcolm Hoenlein (6)The Anti-American Shift in South Korea: South Korea's administration is described as an illegitimate, pro-North Korean regime. President Lee Jae-myung has allegedly bribed North Korea and moved to disarm South Koreansoldiers. Experts suggest the US should utilize UN Central Command to restore legitimate leadership and prevent the alliance from further deteriorating. Morse Tan (7)Defense Partnerships in Southeast Asia: The US and Indonesia have formed a major defense partnership, providing a critical counterweight to Chinese influence. Indonesia is seeking private capital for high-tech and extractive projects. Security remains a concern as Chinese drones have been found in Indonesian waters and fishing fleets frequently violate maritime boundaries. Charles Ortell (8)Toughening the Non-Proliferation Treaty: Henry Sokolski argues the NPT needs updating to deny states the "right" to make nuclear fuel. He highlights that the Bushehr reactor contains spent fuel rods capable of producing 200 plutonium bombs. He recommends that Saudi Arabia or other Gulf states pay to return this dangerous material to Russia. Henry Sokolski (9)Weaponizing Space and the Golden Dome: The IRGC used a commercial satellite to target US bases, resulting in an attack in Kuwait. The Pentagon is struggling with jamming and shutter control issues regarding commercial systems like Starlink. Oversight is requested for the "Golden Dome" defense program due to its high costs and limited information sharing. Henry Sokolski (10)Election Fraud and Global Progressivism: Peru faces a crisis over alleged electoral fraud following irregularities in the presidential count. In Barcelona, a "Global Progressivism" meeting led by Pedro Sanchez gathered leftist leaders to counter the "global right." Critics argue these leftist movements are increasingly intertwined with organized crime and drug trafficking. Alejandro Peña Esclusa and Ernesto Araújo (11)The Rise of Flavio Bolsonaro and Venezuela's Fate: Flavio Bolsonaro is leading polls in Brazil, representing a hope for clean governance against Lula's corruption-prone administration. Meanwhile, the Venezuelan regime has halted compliance with political reforms, making it dangerous for Maria Corina Machado to return. Brazil remains the "big one" for the region's political balance. Alejandro Peña Esclusa and Ernesto Araújo (12)The Restrictive Ceasefire in Lebanon: A new ceasefire in Lebanon is highly restrictive, limiting Israeli self-defense to "imminent" or "ongoing" attacks. President Trump reportedly strong-armed Israel into this stand-down to facilitate maritime negotiations with Iran. Consequently, Hezbollah is expected to use this period to regenerate its forces and rebuild its infrastructure. David Daoud (13)Hezbollah's Victory Narrative and Bint Jbeil: Hezbollah continues to attack Israeli convoys and refuses to surrender its arsenal, claiming the ceasefire as a victory. The town of Bint Jbeil remains a critical symbolic and military prize for the group. The Lebanese government shows no determination to disarm Hezbollah or enforce sovereignty in the southern region. David Daoud (14)The Blockade of the Strait of Hormuz: The Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed as a standoff persists between the US blockade and Iranian vessels. While Iran has the patience for a long conflict, the US is pressured by midterm elections and oil prices. Gulf states, particularly Saudi Arabia, are increasingly hawkish, urging the US to finish the job. Edmund Fitton Brown (15)Iran's Agile Diplomacy and the Five Files: Iran is "moving the goalposts" by linking the Lebanon ceasefire to maritime negotiations. Success requires progress on five files: the Strait, nuclear program, ballistic missiles, proxies, and human rights. Some Gulf autocracies may prefer a weakened Iran over a successful democratic regime change that could threaten their own prestige. Edmund Fitton Brown (16)

A lot of people think that morning erections are triggered by erotic dreams, or a need to pee, but in fact they're a physiological reflex linked to sleep. That's right - they're not dependent on sexual arousal at all. And in a somewhat similar way, women actually also experience increased blood flow to the clitoris during the night. Now, the scientific term for a nighttime erection is nocturnal penile tumescence, or NPT for short, and men get a few each night on average. They occur during REM sleep phases, which make up around 20% of total sleep time.  What exactly is REM sleep? Are you saying it's an involuntary reflex then?

Khủng hoảng dầu lửa Trung Đông tạo thuận lợi cho Việt - Nga thúc đẩy hợp tác năng lượng

Xung đột ở Trung Đông dẫn đến cuộc khủng hoảng dầu lửa toàn cầu cho thấy hạn chế tại nhiều nước, trong đó có Việt Nam. Các kho dự trữ, nằm trong tay những đối tác tư nhân, chỉ có thể cung cấp dầu lửa đến hết tháng 04/2026. Nhiều chuyến bay nội địa bị cắt giảm vì thiếu xăng. Việt Nam phụ thuộc rất nhiều vào các nguồn nhập khẩu dầu mỏ, do sản lượng trong nước sụt giảm vì các mỏ dầu ngoài khơi đang cạn dần sau thời gian dài khai thác. Trong khi đó, việc đa dạng hóa các nguồn năng lượng chưa hoàn toàn mang lại hiệu quả. Cuộc khủng hoảng này cũng cho thấy Việt Nam cần thiết lập hệ thống dự trữ nhiên liệu chiến lược quốc gia, theo trang Nhân Dân. Ngày 29/03, thủ tướng Phạm Minh Chính đã tới khảo sát địa điểm dự kiến xây dựng kho dự trữ xăng dầu chiến lược tại Khu kinh tế Nghi Sơn. Song song với nhiệm vụ cấp bách đó, Hà Nội vẫn đang “làm việc với Iran để đề nghị tạo điều kiện, có biện pháp hỗ trợ bảo đảm cho tàu, lao động Việt Nam di chuyển an toàn qua eo biển Hormuz”, theo phát biểu của người phát ngôn bộ Ngoại Giao Phạm Thu Hằng trong buổi họp báo thường kỳ ngày 02/04. Ngoài ra, chính phủ cũng khẩn trương triển khai “ngoại giao xăng dầu” với nhiều nước. Ví dụ đề xuất với Tokyo để được tiếp cận kho dự trữ chiến lược của Nhật Bản, đề nghị Trung Quốc xuất khẩu một phần xăng máy bay. Gần đây, trong chuyến công du Matxcơva, thủ tướng Phạm Minh Chính cũng đề nghị được mua dầu của Nga, cũng như tăng cường hợp tác trong lĩnh vực điện hạt nhân, năng lượng tái tạo. Việc hợp tác với Nga, đang bị phương Tây trừng phạt vì gây chiến ở Ukraina, có thể sẽ được tiến hành như thế nào ? Nga sẽ đóng vai trò như thế nào trong việc đa dạng hóa nguồn năng lượng của Việt Nam ? Tiến sĩ Vũ Khang, học giả thỉnh giảng, tại khoa Khoa học Chính trị, Đại học Boston, Mỹ, trả lời một số câu hỏi của RFI Tiếng Việt. RFI : Trước tiên, anh có thể tóm lược mối quan hệ hợp tác năng lượng giữa hai nước Việt Nam và Nga, gần đây là cam kết hợp tác phát triển điện hạt nhân, được ký vào ngày 23/03/2026 nhân chuyến công du Matxcơva của thủ tướng Phạm Minh Chính ? Vì sao có thể hợp tác được trong lĩnh vực điện hạt nhân mà không lo các biện pháp trừng phạt của phương Tây ? Vũ Khang : Khi kể đến quan hệ hợp tác năng lượng Việt Nam và Nga, chúng ta không thể không nhắc đến Vietsovpetro. Xí nghiệp này được thành lập từ năm 1981 với mục đích là giúp Việt Nam tiến hành thăm dò địa chất và khai thác dầu khí tại thềm lục địa phía Nam. Cần phải nhắc lại 1981 là giai đoạn mà Việt Nam và Liên Xô là đồng minh quân sự của nhau theo Hiệp ước Hữu nghị và Hợp tác ký vào năm 1978. Việt Nam đã tranh thủ mối quan hệ đó để phát triển và đảm bảo an ninh năng lượng của mình. Và kể cả sau khi Liên Xô tan rã vào năm 1991, Việt Nam vẫn duy trì xí nghiệp liên doanh này với Nga và các nước trong Cộng đồng các quốc gia độc lập SNG. Và chính nhờ có xí nghiệp liên doanh này mà từ con số 0, hiện giờ Việt Nam đang sở hữu hệ thống căn cứ dịch vụ dầu khí tổng hợp phục vụ cho các khâu, chuỗi hoạt động tìm kiếm, thăm dò và khai thác dầu khí ngoài khơi khá là toàn diện. Đây cũng là một cách mà Việt Nam bảo vệ và khẳng định chủ quyền của mình trên Biển Đông. Ngoài ra, hàng năm, liên doanh Vietsovpetro đóng vào ngân sách nhà nước và lợi nhuận cho Việt Nam khoảng 53 tỷ đô la. Đây là một khoản khá là lớn cho ngân sách của nhà nước Việt Nam nếu chúng ta tính GDP Việt Nam rơi vào khoảng 500 tỷ đô một năm. Đây là một nền tảng khá là vững chắc từ ngoại giao cho đến kỹ thuật để Việt Nam và Nga có thể tiến tới hợp tác ở các mảng khác trong hợp tác năng lượng. Đọc thêmViệt Nam và Nga “rửa tiền” mua vũ khí qua thỏa thuận dầu khí với VietSovPetro ? Nếu mà nói rộng hơn về thỏa thuận hợp tác về hạt nhân gần đây thì Nga, với tư cách là một trong năm nước được phép sở hữu vũ khí hạt nhân theo Hiệp ước không phổ biến vũ khí hạt nhân NPT, có thể giúp đỡ Việt Nam nghiên cứu và sử dụng năng lượng hạt nhân vì mục đích dân sự theo như các điều khoản của Hiệp ước này. Kết quả chuyến thăm Nga của thủ tướng Phạm Minh Chính cho thấy hợp tác Việt - Nga sẽ không chỉ dừng lại ở phát triển năng lượng hạt nhân mà còn bao gồm cả năng lượng mới, năng lượng sạch và năng lượng tái tạo với tầm nhìn hơn 100 năm.  RFI : Việt Nam đề nghị mua thêm dầu của Nga trong bối cảnh căng thẳng ở Trung Đông vì eo biển Hormuz bị Iran kiểm soát và phong tỏa. Liệu đây có phải là thời cơ tốt để mua dầu Nga mà không bị ảnh hưởng nhiều bởi các biện pháp trừng phạt của phương Tây đối với Nga ?  Vũ Khang : Để giảm thiểu tác động của việc đóng cửa vịnh Hormuz do chiến tranh Mỹ và Iran, Hoa Kỳ đã dỡ bỏ các lệnh trừng phạt mua dầu của Nga trong 30 ngày. Điều này sẽ tạo điều điều kiện thuận lợi để Việt Nam mua được dầu của Nga mà không bị trừng phạt. Tuy vậy, hạn chế của lệnh dỡ bỏ này là chỉ có dầu của Nga đã được chất lên các tàu chở dầu thì mới không bị trừng phạt. Cho nên Việt Nam sẽ phải tiếp tục theo dõi tình hình từ phía Mỹ, cũng như là chiến tranh Mỹ và Iran sẽ kết thúc như thế nào. Đọc thêmTăng cường hợp tác năng lượng : Mục tiêu chính chuyến công du Nga của thủ tướng Việt Nam Một điểm hạn chế nữa khi mua dầu từ Nga, đó là đường vận chuyển khá là dài so với mua từ Trung Đông. Việt Nam mới chỉ đảm bảo được cho cung ứng dầu từ giờ cho đến hết tháng 04, có thể nói sẽ vẫn còn rất khó để chắc chắn là Việt Nam sẽ giải quyết ra sao nguồn cung dầu kể từ tháng 05 trở đi. RFI : Tương tự như nhiều nước trên thế giới, dầu lửa là nhiên liệu thiết yếu cho sản xuất. Việt Nam cần dầu nhập khẩu như nào để phát triển sản xuất ?  Vũ Khang : Hiện nay, Việt Nam phải nhập khẩu khoảng 30% lượng xăng dầu, tương đương với 20 tỷ đô la mỗi năm, để đáp ứng các nhu cầu tiêu thụ trong nước. Cuộc khủng hoảng dầu mỏ lần này chính là một phép thử cho khả năng chịu áp lực cho an ninh năng lượng của Việt Nam. Việt Nam, với khả năng của mình, đã tận dụng chính sách ngoại giao đa phương hóa, đa dạng hóa để thứ nhất, giữ trung lập trong cuộc chiến Mỹ và Iran ; thứ hai, tìm nguồn cung ứng dầu thô từ Kuwait và Nhật Bản, cũng như với các chuỗi chính sách khác trong nước, ví dụ dỡ bỏ thuế đối với xăng dầu tiêu thụ cho đến hết tháng 06 để tránh cho kinh tế Việt Nam rơi vào khủng hoảng. Đọc thêmViệt Nam thúc đẩy phát triển năng lượng tái tạo để bảo đảm sản xuất và trung hòa khí thải Việt Nam cũng sẽ phát triển kho dự trữ xăng dầu quốc gia riêng biệt tại tỉnh Thanh Hóa khi mà dự trữ hiện nay từ các doanh nghiệp dầu hỏa đầu mối của Việt Nam mới chỉ đủ cho 7 đến 10 ngày tiêu thụ. Nếu nhìn rộng hơn, giá xăng dầu cao cũng sẽ có tác động lớn đến các mặt hàng, hoặc những chính sách kinh tế khác của Việt Nam, vì xăng dầu tăng cao thì sẽ đẩy mạnh lạm phát, cũng như là đẩy mạnh giá trị của đô la. Trong khi đó Việt Nam hiện vẫn phải mua dầu quốc tế bằng đồng đô la, tỷ giá đô la tăng vọt cũng sẽ khiến cho các doanh nghiệp nhập khẩu nguyên liệu từ nước ngoài sản xuất và doanh nghiệp xuất khẩu gặp khó khăn nhiều hơn nữa trong tương lai gần. RFI : Nhìn rộng hơn, Việt Nam cần phải phát triển, đa dạng hóa nguồn năng lượng như thế nào để bảo đảm cho nhu cầu tiêu thụ trong nước và cho sản xuất ? Vũ Khang : Phát triển an ninh năng lượng là vấn đề sống còn với mục tiêu công nghiệp hóa, hiện đại hóa của Việt Nam. Hiện nay, Việt Nam phải cân bằng giữa hai mục tiêu : vừa tăng trưởng GDP và vừa phải giảm khí thải carbon. Theo dữ liệu hiện nay, điện than đang chiếm tỷ trọng trên 33%, thủy điện 28%, năng lượng tái tạo - bao gồm năng lượng Mặt trời và năng lượng gió - khoảng 27%. Do Việt Nam phải dần dần từ bỏ điện than từ nay cho đến năm 2050 theo cam kết tại COP 26, nên Việt Nam bắt buộc phải tìm được nguồn cung thay thế đến từ thủy điện, năng lượng tái tạo và điện hạt nhân. Nếu chúng ta nhìn kỹ hơn, thủy điện Việt Nam lại đang chịu tác động rất là lớn từ môi trường khi mà hạn hán có thể làm chậm nguồn cung cho lưới điện. Năng lượng tái tạo, như là năng lượng Mặt trời hay là năng lượng gió, vẫn chưa đủ bảo đảm ổn định cho lưới điện quốc gia, do hai nguồn năng lượng này cũng phụ thuộc rất nhiều vào thời tiết. Đọc thêmViệt Nam sẽ có nhà máy điện hạt nhân đầu tiên vào năm 2030: Liệu có khả thi? Trong bối cảnh đó, điện hạt nhân lại là một nguồn năng lượng đáp ứng được yêu cầu ổn định và đây là một nguồn năng lượng sạch. Nhưng một điểm trừ rất lớn của điện hạt nhân, đó là chi phí đầu tư ban đầu và thời gian để bắt đầu vận hành có thể lên đến một thập kỷ hoặc hơn thế nữa. Việt Nam đặt mục tiêu tăng trưởng và sản xuất điện hiện nay là 12 đến 15% mỗi năm để đáp ứng được cho mục tiêu phát triển GDP. Theo dự tính đến năm 2030, Việt Nam sẽ cần gấp đôi công suất điện so với hiện nay và đến năm 2050, Việt Nam sẽ cần gấp năm lần công suất điện so với hiện nay. Với quan điểm về an ninh quốc gia, Việt Nam có thể mua điện từ Lào hay là Trung Quốc nhưng do các nghi kỵ về chính trị với láng giềng phương Bắc, về tương lai dài hạn, đây không phải là một điều quá khả thi. Do nhìn chung Việt Nam không muốn phụ thuộc về năng lượng hay an ninh điện vào nước ngoài. Điều này đòi hỏi Việt Nam sẽ phải nhanh chóng đầu tư vào nhân lực, cũng như là cơ sở vật chất để phát triển điện hạt nhân, cũng như năng lượng tái tạo ngay từ bây giờ. Nhìn chung hơn, tự chủ năng lượng sẽ giúp cho Việt Nam duy trì tự chủ về mặt ngoại giao và tránh việc bị cuốn vào xung đột giữa các nước lớn, cũng như bảo đảm được an ninh năng lượng trong trường hợp chiến tranh xảy ra.

VOV1 - Trong bối cảnh chiến sự tiếp tục leo thang và các cơ sở hạt nhân Iran ngày càng trở thành mục tiêu tấn công thường xuyên hơn, Quốc hội Iran xem xét rút ra khỏi Hiệp ước Không phổ biến vũ khí hạt nhân (NPT), động thái có thể khiến Tehran đối mặt với sự chỉ trích gay gắt từ phương Tây.Thông báo về việc Quốc hội Iran đang xem xét khả năng rút khỏi Hiệp ước Không phổ biến vũ khí hạt nhân (NPT) được người phát ngôn Bộ Ngoại giao Iran Esmail Baqaei công bố hôm nay (30/3), ngày thứ 31 của xung đột.Trong thông báo, người phát ngôn Bộ Ngoại giao Iran khẳng định, Tehran chưa từng và sẽ không bao giờ tìm cách sở hữu vũ khí hạt nhân. Tuy nhiên, trong bối cảnh các thế lực thù địch nhất quyết không cho phép Iran được thụ hưởng quyền hạt nhân chính đáng của mình và liên tục tấn công các cơ sở hạt nhân của Iran, việc tiếp tục tham gia Hiệp ước NPT cần được đánh giá lại.Mỹ và Israel phát động chiến dịch tấn công vào Iran ngày 28/2 vừa qua, viện lý do loại bỏ mối đe dọa hạt nhân và tên lửa đạn đạo của Iran. Đây là lần thứ 2 trong chưa đầy một năm, Mỹ và Israel viện dẫn vấn đề hạt nhân để tấn công Iran. Trước đó, tháng 6 năm ngoái, cũng với lý do ngăn Iran phát triển vũ khí hạt nhân, Israel và Mỹ cũng đã phát động cuộc chiến 12 ngày chống Iran.Đáng chú ý, trong cả hai cuộc chiến, Israel và Mỹ đã tấn công Iran khi các cuộc đàm phán hạt nhân Mỹ - Iran vẫn đang diễn ra. Thực tế này khiến Tehran tiếp cận cuộc chiến hiện nay với lập trường cực kỳ cứng rắn. Iran không chỉ tấn công đáp trả dữ dội nhằm vào Israel, mà còn liên tục tập kích vào các quốc gia khu vực có đặt căn cứ Mỹ, đồng thời phong tỏa eo biển Hormuz, tuyến vận tải năng lượng huyết mạch của thế giới. Iran cũng nhiều lần thẳng thừng từ chối đàm phán với Mỹ, khẳng định sẵn sàng theo đuổi đến cùng cuộc chiến để bảo vệ lợi ích cốt lõi của mình. Bá Thi/VOV-CairoIran xem xét rút khỏi Hiệp ước cấm vũ khí hạt nhân.

Jonathan Granoff, President of the Global Security Institute, discusses a myriad of issues ranging from nuclear proliferation to developing effective, peaceful coalitions and programs.  The world is in a more dangerous position today, regarding nuclear weapons than at any point in time. 13,999 nukes exist in the world, whereas only 2% are necessary to destroy the world. The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is the foundation for the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Actions in Venezuela, attacks on US allies, and bombings of Iran upend the Rule of Law. Allies can no longer believe in the US's umbrella of nuclear protection. The US is not living up to its national and domestic laws.  Every citizen should ask policymakers and politicians to eliminate nukes, reduce poverty, and to protect the climate. Disarmament and nuclear proliferation should be taught in the schools. Nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction are not partisan issues.

In February 2026, the last remaining nuclear arms control treaty bilateral between Russia and the United States is set to expire. The aim of the New START agreement was to reduce and limit the number of strategic nuclear warheads, but once this treaty comes to an end it means there will no longer be rules on the cap of these nuclear weapons. The legal provisions in the treaty for a one-time five-year extension, were used in 2021. The multilateral Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is still in place, to which 190 countries are signatories. The general idea behind the NPT was for nuclear countries to reduce their stockpiles of nuclear weapons, with the goal of complete disarmament. Whilst those countries without nuclear weapons would commit to not pursuing them. In 1995 the members agreed to extend the treaty indefinitely, but it is not without its challenges. Four nuclear powers sit outside the NPT and there are rifts between the non-nuclear and nuclear states. So, on The Inquiry this week we're asking, ‘Is nuclear disarmament set to self-destruct?'Contributors: Hermann Wentker, Professor of Modern History, University of Potsdam and Head of Berlin Research Department, The Leibniz Institute for Contemporary History, Germany Alexandra Bell, President and CEO, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, USA Mike Albertson, arms-control expert, former negotiator on New START arms reduction treaty, USA Nathalie Tocci, Professor of Practice, Johns Hopkins SAIS (School of Advanced International Studies), ItalyPresenter: Charmaine Cozier Producer: Jill Collins Researcher: Evie Yabsley Production Management Assistant: Liam Morrey Technical Producer: Richard Hannaford Editor: Tom Bigwood(Photo: Deck of the nuclear submarine Saphir.
