Ukraine War: A Breakdown in the International System

The Ukraine war marks a breakdown in the global nuclear settlement. I think it will cool interest in civilian nuclear energy throughout the world. It may have an impact on proliferation because Ukraine did have nuclear weapons. Look what's happened to Ukraine.

They wanted prosperity rather than poverty. They wanted life rather than death. We don't want it.
