Listen now
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. Maxim Tucker joins the World in 10 to analyse the likelihood of the plan being brought to reality and how it might impact Washington and Moscow. The World in 10 is the Times' daily podcast dedicated to global security.
