What does the US want with Cuba?
I actually saw this yesterday.
So Trump says that maybe we'll have a friendly takeover of Cuba.
And he said that two days ago.
So Cuba's next and then North Korea?
North Korea have nuclear weapons though, don't they, Annie?
Yes, they do.
I always wonder that actually does getting to a point where you have nuclear weapons kind of mean the U.S.
will leave you alone?
Is there a bit of an unspoken rule, geopolitically, where if you get to nuclear weapons, you can do whatever the hell you want?
It's the ultimate deterrent.
One of my friends was asking me this morning how the situation with Iran getting nuclear weapons is any different from the situation with North Korea having nuclear weapons.
Or is it the same situation?
Andrew, to that point of nuclear weapons, if Iran had already violated many of the things they'd said around nuclear weapons, and I think they'd enriched uranium to 60% roughly, they would have theoretically continued to go.
Because they know that if you want the US and other people in the region to stay away from you, you've got to get nuclear weapons.
And once you get back to that point, then no one's going to mess with you.
Do you think we're closer to nuclear war now because of this action?
100%.
So you think this has moved us closer to that?
You think it is being used in the battlefield?
