"This is simply a peaceful stockpile of weapons-grade uranium," one official said. "We have no intent to build any nuclear weapons."
King Sten of the Norwegian Alliance announced yesterday that the Norwegian Alliance would create an emergency uranium reserve. In the wake of the massive profits of the switch to a commercial economy, the stockpile has the potential to grow exceedingly massive and be used to create nuclear weapons.
There is no indication yet that there is any high-level nuclear project being created, but nevertheless, activists are concerned about the possible move toward creating a nuclear arsenal, and critics of this move point out the massive military spending recently with the missile program and the expansion of the tank forces and the navy.
