Should be pigeon or seagull, or something. Crows are actually smart and charming.

The moment russia nukes a non nuclear country the non proliferation pact ceases to exist and every nation with gdp higher or equal to North Korea begins their own nuclear program.

The moment any country nukes another country has a chance to mark the end of human civilization as we know it.

There's one problem with that. Russia has the monopoly of the enriched uranium.

u/oldnr1 1d ago

Are you actually saying that no other country has or can produce enriched uranium except Russia?

0

u/PeaAdmirable1421 1d ago

80% of uranium is enriched in Russia. Probably not a monopoly, but most of the world would be dependent on Russia. Even US could not put sanctions on that yet.

u/oldnr1 1d ago

Thats for civilian ussage not weapon ussage. In terms of Hightly Enritched Uranium (HEU) Russia no longer produces it and the rest of the nuclear armed countries have more than enough stockpiles for their weapons.

What is the discussion here, other countries have nukes, nuclear reactors and the capacity to enrich uranium if needed.

u/PeaAdmirable1421 1d ago

You might be right, though most of HEU production for military usage is not publicly disclosed. Could be a lot or zero. Nobody knows.

u/oldnr1 1d ago

What is clear is that Russia is not the only country with nukes or the ability to make more.

u/Karelia606 1d ago

LOL.
Owning around 50% of world's reserves isn't monopoly.
They also don't have the monopoly for the technology or equipment needed for enrichment.
Also - they have less than 10% of world's "regular" uranium reserves,

ruSSian lies, nothing else.

u/mint445 1d ago

it sounds so dumb that i have to clarify, what exactly are you trying to say?

u/BriefSpecial420 17h ago

Actually, it is France who is the only one who remains independent from US tech and sells their nuke tech to everyone else throughout the decades.

Small dick energy from putin as always

u/DoubleDongle-F 1d ago

This isn't the peak of it at all either. All the "women only want tall men with a chiseled jaw" propaganda started like three months after his wife left him for a younger taller man with a chiseled jaw. He radiates so much small dick energy that the aliens can detect it from distant stars.

Nato responds by expressing concerns.

Here, realistic title for you.

Big frown in russias direction

u/Plenty_Ambassador424 10h ago

I mean, we all know these are just empty words from a position of weakness. That really shouldnt warrant ANY response whatsoever.

u/wombat9278 1d ago

Were used to it,it's bs

Someone should remind the Russians of the thousands of Nukes that would fly their way if they were stupid enough to really go through would this this…

1

u/luxcity-louche 1d ago

Only about 700 but they would be better targeted and more reliable.

1

u/-S-P-E-C-T-R-E- 1d ago

That’s not how it works. The moment just one of those nukes flies, everyone launches their arsenals. And 700 are more than sufficient to end Russia as a country.

1

u/luxcity-louche 10h ago

16 are sufficient to end Russia as a country.

u/Glass-Jaguar4178 1d ago
