MiniNukes For Ukraine ???

Here is an interesting, lucrative proposal:

And here is a cartoon which may help to sell it:

I like Mr. Fish, but he's way off base here. We're not going to turn into Venus any time soon.

As long as there is an independent nation-state known as Russia, Ukraine won't be entering NATO (and probably not the EU). So giving them nuke plants, which possess and/or produce things you need to make nuclear bombs (e.g., plutonium) may not happen either.

But the Rolls-Royce idea is certainly a good way to stick the EU with the development costs for a technology which no doubt eventually will be used somewhere else.

Just remember, every nuke plant is a source of forever mixed waste and a disaster waiting to happen. There are only two possible solutions to the problem(s) this project allegedly will solve:

1. use less energy, and
2. cull the human population ... A LOT.

Since both already are being rapidly implemented, the REAL reason behind the SMR concept probably is to provide power for the huge plantations and mega-factories the ultra-rich (e.g., Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg) are building for themselves.
