Because of Trump, the Doomsday Clock hands moved closer to a nuclear disaster
26
On the eve of the organizers of the project “Doomsday Clock” decided to move the hands closer to the “global apocalypse.” We are talking about the project staff publication Bulletin of Atomic Scientiststhat created a kind of clock, reflecting the "remaining time" before a nuclear catastrophe. In this case, the time is determined on the basis of exclusively personal judgments of the authors themselves.
The new position of the hands on the clock corresponds to the value in 23 hours 57 minutes and 30 seconds. The correction occurred in 30 seconds in the direction of approaching a “nuclear catastrophe”. The magazine's employees responsible for the translation of the shooter explained their decision by the arrival of Donald Trump in the United States. According to the creators of the Doomsday Clock, the appearance of Trump brings the world closer to a nuclear standoff. Under Obama, this was not ...
The material in this journal states that Trump is not only a supporter of strengthening the US nuclear potential, but also a critic of the theory of global climate change. The climate, as it turns out, is also taken into account when translating the clock hands. Earlier, Donald Trump stated that global warming statements were first made in China. According to Trump, the PRC delivers such statements deliberately to reduce global competition. These words Trump caused a flurry of criticism among environmentalists and the so-called "green" parties in different countries of the world.
Of stories “Doomsday clock” is known that the closest time value to the “nuclear apocalypse” in the entire history of their existence was the value 23: 58 (“2 minutes” before the nuclear disaster). It was connected with the testing of the hydrogen bomb in the USSR in 1953 year.
The previous time, the clock hands moved 2 a year ago. Today, the clock shows the closest time to a "nuclear catastrophe" in all recent years.
