Poseidon and Trump nuclear testing
Russian Poseidon Tests Provoke US Escalation and Western Policy Conflicts
Understand the strategic danger of Russia's new nuclear torpedoes and why US policy responses (resuming testing) risk a dangerous, unwinnable arms race.
Short Summary
- The Russian Poseidon system is a destabilizing underwater nuclear torpedo designed to create tsunamis on coastlines using nuclear power.
- The underlying technology suggests several major breakthroughs in miniaturized nuclear reactor capability.
- Donald Trump's response—ordering a ramp-up of US nuclear testing—is criticized as an escalation echoing flawed 1980s Cold War analogies.
- Belgian officials advocate ignoring Russian "red lines" regarding deep strikes into Russia, signaling high risk of further conventional/nuclear escalation in Europe.
This discussion analyzes the implications of Russia successfully testing advanced (Burevestnik and Poseidon) nuclear weapons systems. It contrasts the need for immediate arms control negotiation with the current push in Washington towards nuclear arms race resumption, highlighting severe strategic underestimation of the current global balance.

International journalist day today RIP CONZALO LIRA
Are you kidding. Never trust the United States of America. Never.
Putin warned the West's neocons many years ago... They laughed/mocked at him.. Who's laughing now?
Idiots are ruling the World. God bless us all.
Russia's strategic offensive arsenal is truly terrifying. Thank God they're not America.
Trump loves to gaslight the US public, like Keir Starmer gaslights the British public.
I cringed at Trump claiming the most nuclear weapons because it shows he has no idea about the devastation of even one nuclear weapon that he seems to think that launching thousands is something that will make him win and that anyone will survive that. He’s a feckin idiot
I love it when two Greeks discuss Poseidon 😊
I stand with Putin and Russia from NYC. May god bless Venezuela as well.
