HARDtalk

Beatrice Fihn

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC News EuropeLatest broadcast: on BBC News North America

HARDtalk is in Oslo to speak to the winners of the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize, ICAN (the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons). It comes as North Korea continues its testing of missiles capable of reaching the United States with a nuclear warhead. President Trump has threatened 'fire and fury' against North Korea and talks of increasing America's nuclear weapons stockpile. Earlier this year ICAN helped to deliver the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons which was signed by 122 countries, although none of the nuclear armed powers signed. Stephen Sackur talks to ICAN's executive director, Beatrice Fihn. What use is this Nobel Peace Prize when the world's nuclear powers aren't listening? Show less
