Antinuclear

Australia needed for that two-faced nuclear security summit

On the one hand – yes, it’s a good idea to promote the world’s security from nuclear terrorism and nuclear weapons.

On the other hand, the summit is also aimed at promoting the nuclear industry by a global cartel – the Global Nuclear Energy Partnership, to which Australia is signed up.

Australia could very well end up endorsing a system whereby Australia’s uranium is “leased” – i.e  it comes back to Australia in the form of nuclear wastes.
