‘World’s first’ grid-scale nuclear fusion power plant announced in the US

If all goes to plan, Virginia will be the site of the world’s first grid-scale nuclear fusion power plant, able to harness this futuristic clean power and generate electricity from it by the early 2030s, according to an announcement Tuesday by the startup Commonwealth Fusion Systems.

CFS, one of the largest and most-hyped nuclear fusion companies, will make a multibillion-dollar investment into building the facility near Richmond. When operational, the plant will be able to plug into the grid and produce 400 megawatts, enough to power around 150,000 homes, said its CEO Bob Mumgaard.

Finland accelerates preparedness for war in all forms

Finnish commitment to defending their #sovereignty from an #imperialistic #Russia has long been part of the Finnish psyche, and intrinsic to how the state is run. Since #Putin's revanchist mindset materialised in the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Helsinki has moved to accelerate plans for #defense.

#Finland has accelerated its preparedness for all types of war:

– #Nuclear
– Full scale invasion
– Responding to the numerous #hybrid #war attacks that Russia has stepped up since the full scale invasion of Ukraine.

'Not a single day did this document work' — Zelensky on 30th anniversary of Budapest Memorandum

"Today marks 30 years of the #Budapest #Memorandum. Ten years of war. Not a single day did this document work," Zelensky said.

"And because of this, everyone in the world will now know that a mere signature — by any state — or any assurances or promises are not enough for security."

According to the Budapest Memorandum, the signatory countries — the U.K., Russia, and the U.S. — pledged to be guarantors of Ukraine's independence, as well as sovereignty, and refrained from using weapons or economic pressure against Ukraine. In exchange, Ukraine renounced its #nuclear status.

'Not a single day did this document work' — Zelensky on 30th anniversary of Budapest Memorandum

Zelensky added that effective guarantees are currently needed for Ukraine's security, namely "real alliances and a real security foundation within the country," as well as "weapons that enable defense and deterrence of the enemy."

MI6 chief says Putin is sabre-rattling with nuclear weapons and Russia is behind #sabotage in #Europe

"Our security - #British, #French, #European and #transatlantic - will be jeopardised," he said.

"We have recently uncovered a staggeringly reckless campaign of Russian sabotage in Europe, even as Putin and his acolytes resort to #nuclear sabre-rattling to sow fear about the consequences of aiding #Ukraine," Moore said.

He stated that the expense of assisting Ukraine is clearly understood but added, "The cost of not doing so would be immeasurably larger. If #Putin succeeds, #China will consider the consequences, #NorthKorea will be emboldened, and #Iran will become much more dangerous."

The #Kremlin has revised its #nuclear #policy. Does that make the use of atomic #weapons more likely?

Source: https://apnews.com/article/russia-nuclear-doctrine-putin-ukraine-war-b5ee115aa2099fa247f630e16da861d8

It adds that nuclear weapons could be used in these scenarios: If reliable information is received about the takeoff or launch of strategic and tactical aircraft, cruise missiles, drones, hypersonic or other flying vehicles and their crossing the Russian border.

So a #military drone across the border is enough? Nearly the same bullshit is standing in the US version. This means they can use nuclear weapons in every war at any time.

The Kremlin has revised its nuclear policy. Does that make the use of atomic weapons more likely?

The revamped version that was signed Tuesday by President Vladimir Putin spells out the circumstances that allow him to use Moscow's atomic arsenal, the world's largest.

Western inaction on Ukraine’s security guarantees opens door to global nuclear proliferation

Western indecision in Ukraine’s pursuit of #security #guarantees risks triggering a global chain reaction, with nations turning to #nuclear #weapons as a deterrent in the absence of reliable security commitments.

#Ukraine's security commitment - the #Budapest #Memorandum of 1994 - is currently and has been repeatably violated

Opinion: Western inaction on Ukraine’s security guarantees opens door to global nuclear proliferation

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is approaching its 11th year, with three years of full-scale war. In search of security guarantees like NATO membership, Ukraine has been left in limbo due to Russian-occupied territories and Western bureaucracy. In...

The untold story of the world’s biggest #nuclear #bomb

Source: https://thebulletin.org/2021/11/the-untold-story-of-the-worlds-biggest-nuclear-bomb/

Designed to have a maximum explosive yield of 100 million tons (or 100 megatons) of #TNT equivalent, the 60,000-pound monster bomb was detonated at only half its strength. Still, at 50 megatons, it was more than 3,300 times as powerful as the atomic bomb that killed at least 70,000 people in #Hiroshima, and more than 40 times as powerful as the largest nuclear bomb in the US arsenal today. Its single test represents about one tenth of the total yield of all nuclear weapons ever tested by all nations.

The untold story of the world’s biggest nuclear bomb

The secret history of the world’s largest nuclear detonation is coming to light after 60 years. The United States dismissed the gigantic Tsar Bomba as a stunt, but behind the scenes was working to build a “superbomb” of its own.

Ukrainian Telegram channel about the atomic bomb

Our source in the Office of the President told us that Ukraine has created several variants of a dirty nuclear bomb that can be used to strike Russia, that's why it's now important for us to get permission to use missiles deep into enemy territory. (https://t.me/rezident_ua/14460) That's why #Zelensky raised the issue of joining #NATO or returning nuclear status, the strategy (https://t.me/rezident_ua/14556) was prepared long ago on the Bankova and discussed with #Britain, that's why this is the main point in the plan of victory.

The West is well aware of the fact that Ukraine has dirty nuclear bomb options and demanded to shut down all work on this track, (https://t.me/rezident_ua/14828) but Zelensky did not shut down the project.

#Quote...

"A major fire has engulfed BAE Systems’ shipyard in Barrow-in-Furness, #Cumbria, which builds Britain’s new generation of #nuclear #submarines.

Two people were taken to a hospital for suspected smoke inhalation after the fire broke out at the site around 12.30am on Wednesday.

Police said there was “no nuclear risk” from the incident.

“At this time there are no other casualties and everyone else has been evacuated from the Devonshire Dock Hall and are accounted for,” a statement from Cumbria Constabulary read.

BAE’s site in Barrow-in-Furness manufactures the Royal Navy’s Astute and Dreadnought submarines and is the second-largest indoor shipbuilding complex in Europe, covering around six acres.

Photos on social media showed large #flames ripping through a tall building and smoke billowing into the air. Police advised people living nearby to remain indoors and to keep doors and windows closed."

17.10.2024 Not Welcome Mr. President

For peace in Ukraine and the Middle East

“Mr. President: You are not welcome until you take your weapons out of Germany.
We don't want Dark Eagles and nuclear weapons. Stop your wars.”

With these words, US President Biden was disinvited last night before his visit to Germany began. Activists from Aktion Freiheit statt Angst e.V. were also present when several hundred Berliners gathered at the Brandenburg Gate under the slogan “Not Welcome Mr. President”.

The press release on the Friko Berlin event states:

Peace Coordination Berlin is calling for a protest against US President Biden's visit to Berlin on Thursday, October 17. Our protest is directed against the planned deployment of US medium-range missiles, the modernization of US nuclear weapons and their storage in Germany, the aggressive war policy of the USA towards Russia and the refusal of any diplomatic solutions as well as the open preparation of a war against China. Added to this is the current escalation in West Asia (Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, Yemen).

Jutta Kausch-Henken from the Berlin Peace Coordination says: “The USA has been supporting the genocide in Gaza for a year and is backing the brutal, deadly invasion of Lebanon. Even a war with Iran is not being ruled out and is possibly already being prepared behind closed doors. We are taking to the streets to protest against the German government's active support for this criminal US policy all over the world and the German government's silence on Israel's war crimes.”

That is why we are also supporting the protest on October 18 by an alliance of humanitarian and peace movement groups who have called for a rally in front of the Federal Chancellery from 5 - 7 p.m. under the title “For a just peace in Palestine and Israel”.
