Europe's Power is Defined by the Ability to Take Action in Ukraine

There's a couple of different things that could be done to get rid of the the HEU [Highly Enriched Uranium] or other fissile material that might be in the country...There's the option of blowing it up on site. So basically you explode the material, disperse it, especially if it's underground. Probably practically the easiest option, but you can't eliminate the risk of that material leaking out and causing chemical hazards in the atmosphere as well. So no good options really."

“It is too soon to call whether they will ultimately join Iran’s retaliation or not,” said Burcu Ozcelik, a senior research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, a London-based think tank...That the Houthis have not yet done so likely hints at “the pace and sequencing of Iran’s retaliatory response,” according to Ozcelik at RUSI. Tehran “may judge that the Houthi card is better held in reserve for later.” The pause also speaks to the “internal factionalism” within the movement, Ozcelik added, with hard-liners “spoiling for a fight” while others argue that “tightening control over Yemeni territory should take priority.”

Justin Bronk, the senior research fellow for airpower and technology at the Royal United Services Institute, said: “It was short-sighted in terms of dismissing what Ukraine can contribute in terms of specialist advice. Ukraine is unquestionably one of the leaders in the world in the way that it does air defence command and control.”
