In this week’s Long Interview, Bill Whiteford speaks to Sir Rodric Braithwaite, who at the end of a long diplomatic career was British ambassador to Moscow. He also saw, first hand, the disintegration of the Soviet system and the rise of Russian nationalism. His latest book is Armageddon and Paranoia, which recounts how the power of the atom was harnessed to produce weapons capable of destroying human civilisation.
