Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.
Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be
We already have hundreds of tons of plutonium sitting in our spent CANDU fuel. We have plenty of expertise on what to do with it. They say it would take a couple months for us to put an arsenal together; delivery would actually be the harder part.
You’re forgetting North Korea did it slowly and painfully without provoking an invasion. The main reason not to do this is that proliferation is bad, and that we don’t want to be North Korea. Hosting or just generally having an agreement with a nuclear power would be much preferable.
North Korea is bordered by two nuclear powers who both consider themselves rivals of the western democracies. They aren’t interested in bullying the DPRK because they both see the DPRK as an asset in their fight against the west. Look no further than north korean troops and equipment being brought to fight in Russia and Ukraine
Russia is as far as I know. A full military ally of north Korea. And China tolerates them all the while.
And South Korea. It still seems like a counterexample to me.
