Iran's ongoing nuclear enrichment program continues to serve as a significant obstacle in the current negotiations with the United States. Despite various diplomatic efforts, the enrichment activities remain a major sticking point that complicates discussions and raises concerns about potential nuclear proliferation in the region.

Remember that the UK nuclear power stations are always part of the UK's nuclear weapons programme.

They are not electricty-generating plants that produce nuclear waste as a by-product. They are plutonium factories that produce electricity as a by-product.

The designs that are used are completely in-efficient at both because of the pretence.

There are more efficient routes towards generating electriucity with radioactive materials that does not create fissile material, and there are more effective ways of manufacturing plutonium that does not waste energy making electricity.

Do one or the other, not make a dog's breakfast of both.

And, No, I do not like nuclear weapons, but if we do not have them, we'll be at the mercy of the countries that do have them.

Look at Ukraine and Iran.

breeder reactors constitute a huge #proliferation hazard.

I mean, India owns already nuclear weapons, but from a global perspective, we *really* don't want more plutonium factories... 😵

I’m unsure that anyone is more stupid and conceited than the current White House crop. What diplomats and analysts already knew, and which we knew who work for peace.

THE FEAR THAT DROVE TRUMP TO WAR

The specter of a nuclear Iran, no matter how unreal, provided the rationale for the current slaughter

Are we safer because we have nuclear #weapons, irrespective of whether these are dependent on or independent of the #UnitedStates? Having them makes us a target. The logic of possessing them makes that of nuclear #proliferation irrefutable. If we have them, & other nuclear weapons States have them, why shouldn't #Iran have #nukes? Oh, but THEY are nasty, & WE are good!

Trump’s Iran war will reinforce North Korea’s view that nuclear weapons are the only path to security

As speculation mounts that Kim Jong-un and Trump could meet this month, analysts say Pyongyang will continue to see nuclear weapons as a matter of survival

US military action in Iran risks igniting a regional and global nuclear cascade

"If abandoning a nuclear program leads to regime change, relinquishing weapons results in invasion, and remaining at the threshold invites military strikes, the logic goes, then security is only truly achieved through the possession of nuclear weapons – and not by negotiating them away or halting development before completion."

US military action in Iran risks igniting a regional and global nuclear cascade

The Trump administration has called on Iran to permanently end its nuclear program. But threats of force may undermine effort of nonproliferation.
