Description
As Ukraine fears total US withdrawal from its fight with Russia, Times journalist Maxim Tucker uncovers one possible plan of action - nuclear rearmament. The document he's seen suggests a rudimentary nuclear bomb - about a tenth of the size of the Nagasaki 'Fat Man' - could be built in months if Donald Trump pulls American military support.
