Verified via web search. Stuart Russell made this statement at the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi (February 2026) speaking to AFP. Source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but the AFP wire story is republished across many news outlets (Ashley County Ledger, Brazil Times, Iosco News, Sanford Herald, Branson Tri-Lakes News, etc.) all confirming the verbatim quote. The "for" vote on "Nations should negotiate a binding international treaty on AI safety, similar to nuclear non-proliferation" aligns directly with Russell's call for nations to "develop binding legal commitments" to protect peoples from AI risks. Year 2026 is current.
