The unfortunate part too is that you can’t even really blame some of these countries for wanting nukes..
If their allies can’t/won’t help them..

[parthasarathyvenkatadri]

The convincing argument is "look at Ukraine, if it had nukes it would not have been in a war today ".

[QuantumAscension]

As an American, I'd say the US and it's allies have some responsibility in setting the new precedent as well, namely with Libya and Iraq. Both Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein had nuclear development programs, but either agreed to end said development (Gaddafi) or never successfully created nuclear weapons (Hussein). And so in the end, neither had that deterrent when the US and Co. directly or indirectly overthrew them. Hence why Kim-Jung-Un won't consider disarmament and Iran is so interested in acquiring their own nukes.

The signature states of the Budapest memorandum, namely, Ukraine and Kazakhstan should seek to build nuclear weapons in order to deter Russian and Chinese expansionism, since the great powers didn’t hold their end of the deal.

Here in italy we had in the 70s the "alpha program" to develop a nuclear arsenal. Unfortunately the non nuclear proliferation treaties arrived first and we were forced by the americans to stop the program (italy was the last western nation to sign). The missile part of the program was converted to the missile civilian industry and italy was the third nation to launch a satellite in space .

Ukraine ascended to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty in 1994, in return for security assurances by nuclear powers. In 2014 Russia violated by invading, and US, UK violated by looking the other way.

Then, in 2022, the West played to Russian nuclear blackmail. And in 2023, Russian announced it placed nukes in Belarus, to no consequence.

So, US/NATO literally did the opposite of what is required by the NPT when faced with the necessity to enforce it. RIP NPT.

You get a nuke, you get a nuke, everyone gets a nuke.

The war in Ukraine demostrates why cowardice dictators should not have nuclear weapons. When their military is shown to be absolutely useless, dictators should not be able to threaten nuclear war if they're not allowed to win.

[stox]

I would recommend Poland to directly develop powerful EMPs. I think those weapons will be much more effective in an actual war in the future.

If we live in world without policeman, everybody should be ready to protect itself by their own

[YaGoodryl]

Looking at the impotence of the West and the cost of its reluctance to Ukraine, it's a vital necessity for Ukraine to regain its nuclear status. Because who knows how many 'careful' politicians are there in the future, taking forever to deliver so needed aid.

[aberroa]

I think in case of Ukraine, it's not only russia who is to blame, but also US and UK, who signed the Budapest memorandum. Russia is the main perpetrator, but both US and UK were signing that memorandum as guarantors. So in order to stop nuclear proliferation, they should've acted in 2014 strictly and decisively not only to stop the future war, but also to deoccupy Crimea, by force if necessary. Since that didn't happened, that means that their guarantees do not worth the paper they're signed on, and therefore, it's a sign to other countries that they cannot rely on such world order.

The biggest mistake we've done was move away from nuclear energy. The more i learn about our power grid, the more i realize that modern nuclear energy options are our best option. Small form reactors, LFTRs, Thorium Reactors, molten salt reactors. Utilizing our advanced technology, Improved engineering & material science. Utilizing our greater understanding of safety & well made designs. We have so much more advanced computer technology & robotics that can be used. It feels like even tho tons of advancement has occurred with engineering designs, safety measures, etc. It still doesn't matter to most people. It's like most people are ingrained with a natural negative response when talking about nuclear energy. It's a bummer because i truly believe that our best option for our future is to start utilizing Modern advanced nuclear energy options in our electrical grid. It's just proving to be challenging to get politicians to get on board.

  It will really allow places to be much more energy independent. Less reliant on fossil fuels. They'll have efficient, stable electrical grids and the rest of the grid could experiment with alternative power sources, power desalination plants, etc.
We need to heal from the trauma of our past. See & learn that those things only happened solely from Us not understanding what we were doing when it came to nuclear energy at the time. We didn't have advanced enough technology, material science, engineering, safety measures, understanding of how to go about everything, etc. This source of energy will greatly help the world improve towards the future and lowering emissions. More than anything else could, while also providing a very stable electrical grid system. Currently we have alternative energy options but the majority of our grid is powered off of fossil fuels and emission producing sources of energy. We will be so much better going forward commiting to modern advanced nuclear energy options.

You get a nuclear boomstick, you get a nuclear boomstick, all countries should get one so we can see fireworks.

[Dragonkeeper]

I don't want to set the world on fire....

[mateuszwolny]

We can't into space, but we can into nuclear war!

[extraterrestrial]

If I was a leader of *any* country in the world, the *first* thing I would do, would be getting nuclear weapons. Actually, the absence of such weapons in most countries is one of the greatest mysteries that I don't understand.

8:39 It was called 'The gadget', the operation of detonating it was given Codename 'Trinity'.
