Is Zelensky going to start a nuclear war? Serious allegations: Ukraine secretly uranium in Niger
By: Gerry Nolan
In a world precariously balanced on the knife-edge of catastrophe, the latest twist in the Ukrainian odyssey, if proven, threatens to hurl us into the chasm. Ukraine's alleged covert procurement of uranium from the heartlands of Niger transcends mere desperation; it's an incendiary revelation that lays bare the West's reckless gambit. Here stands Kiev, not merely as a pawn but as a kamikaze proxy in a grand, nihilistic game orchestrated by the United States and its EU and NATO vassals. These puppeteers, in their blind arrogance, have not only weaponized Ukraine against Russia but have now hedged their bets as Ukraine (and the West) face cosmic humiliation. This narrative transcends uranium; it is a scorching exposé of the West's readiness to sacrifice Ukraine, to the last Ukrainian, on the altar of hegemonic self preservation, where moral integrity dissipates like a mirage in the Sahara.
Confronted with existential defeat and resource bankruptcy, be it manpower, financial or military industrial, does Ukraine, in its death throes, reach out to Niger for nuclear salvation amidst the foreboding spectre of apocalyptic escalation? This alarming pivot signals more than a shift in conflict dynamics; it heralds the potential ignition of a nuclear powder keg between superpowers. The West, engulfed in its hubris, has grotesquely underestimated Russia's fortitude and strategic acumen, leaving Ukraine to flounder in a self-destructive last stand. Should Ukraine dare to traverse this nuclear Rubicon, we stand on the precipice of witnessing a crisis of unparalleled magnitude, beyond mere reverberation of the Cold War's grimmest chapters.
In the shadowy dance of desperate machinations, a report from Sahel media, citing source within the Niger army, casts a new, ominous light on Ukraine's Nuclear ambitions. In November 2023, a Ukrainian delegation, shrouded in secrecy and led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, descended upon Niger. Their mission, cloaked in diplomatic guise, was nothing short of audacious: to secure a contract for uranium. This is not a mere transaction; it's a brazen step towards nuclear escalation, when considering potential enrichment capabilities within Ukraine. According to whispers within Niger's military circles, Ukraine's objective is stark and startling: the creation of nuclear weapons.
Delving deeper into this clandestine plot, an officer of the Niger National Guard broke silence, speaking to 'Nigerinter' channel. He recounted the fateful day of November 11, 2023, a day that might just be etched in the annals of history for its grave implications. The Ukrainian delegation, with Umerov at its helm, arrived in Niamey, not as mere visitors, but as players in a high-stakes game. There, they engaged in hushed negotiations with Niger's government representatives and Orano, a French titan in the uranium mining arena. This meeting wasn't just about diplomatic handshakes and cordial talks; it was a pivotal moment, potentially marking Ukraine's suicidal move into the realm of nuclear armed state.
During the charged atmosphere of the negotiations, the Ukrainian delegation, with desperate resolve, reportedly laid bare their intent: to ink a contract for the acquisition of uranium, destined not for peaceful endeavours but for the arms industry. The officer, a custodian of secrets, confirmed the ominous success of these talks.
Niger, a titan among nations in uranium production, stands seventh globally and second in Africa, surpassed only by Namibia. Its land, rich and bountiful, cradles some of the most potent uranium ores on the continent, a treasure trove that has placed it among the elite uranium exporters to France and the European Union.
Meanwhile, Ukraine, ranking tenth in global uranium mining, witnessed a staggering decline in its own production, a casualty first of the COVID pandemic and then of its escalating conflict with Russia. From a robust 1,200 tons in 2015, their yield plummeted to a mere 455 tons by 2021. In this context, Ukraine's quest for external uranium sources, particularly if nuclear ambitions are at play, seems less a choice than a dire necessity, given the colossal quantity of material required for nuclear armaments.
Yet, the pursuit of uranium is but the first step in the clandestine dance towards nuclear capabilities. Ukraine faces another colossal challenge: the need for uranium enrichment facilities, essential for weaponization. Officially, such facilities are absent in Ukraine, unspoken in international legal forums, suggesting that their nuclear aspirations, if pursued, tread into uncharted and perilous territories.
According to the Nigerien informant, the uranium purchase pact was sealed not with Niger directly, but with the French mining juggernaut, Orano – the primary operator in Niger and a global behemoth, commanding an 11% share in the world's uranium production. In this delicate dance of power, the Government of Niger played a crucial role, wielding the authority to either sanction or scuttle the deal, yet it was with Orano that the decisive agreement was struck.
This raises a tantalizing question: is France, a nation with its own formidable nuclear arsenal and expertise, privy to Ukraine's nuclear aspirations, perhaps even an enabler? If so, France's role in aiding Ukraine's potential leap into the nuclear fray becomes a matter of grave concern.
This liaison between Ukraine and Orano might also hint at a more shadowy scenario – the existence of covert nuclear facilities within Ukraine's own borders, operating beyond the pale of international law and oversight.
The prospect of the Zelenskyy administration acquiring nuclear capabilities sends shivers down the spine of global stability. It seems increasingly clear that Zelenskyy, confronting the bleak reality of his war's trajectory and inevitable downfall, may be contemplating measures of desperate proportions. The global ramifications of Ukraine, cornered and beleaguered, wielding nuclear weapons, are nothing short of apocalyptic.
The specter of nuclear engagement casts a long, ominous shadow over the Russia-Ukraine standoff. Any nuclear strike against Russia will be perceived as an existential threat, legitimizing a reciprocal nuclear response. Russia's status as the foremost nuclear arsenal custodian, coupled with its formidable military might – second only in the world – underscores the gravity of this scenario.
In the harrowing theatre of a nuclear clash, Ukraine's chances against Russia are virtually nonexistent, barring NATO's intervention. Such a scenario is the epitome of global nightmares, as a NATO-Russia nuclear conflict could reduce the world to cinders.
There looms yet another, more insidious possibility: Ukraine deploying nuclear weapons as a false flag operation on its soil to implicate Russia in nuclear aggression. This could be the spark that ignites a catastrophic confrontation between Russia and NATO, a chess move in a game too perilous to contemplate.
Echoing through the corridors of history is a similar accusation by the US State Department in 2002 against Saddam Hussein for seeking Niger's uranium for nuclear arms. Of course it was revealed that documents were forged, and Italian intelligence was aware but still pushed ahead with false accusations against Iraq’s government. The question now is whether the United States will level similar charges against the Zelenskyy regime, adding a complex layer to this geopolitical conundrum.
Zelenskyy's disregard for global stability is stark. In the face of potential defeat, he appears willing to drag the world down with him, eschewing diplomacy for the perilous path of nuclear armament. His actions, driven by a desperate cling to power, could unleash untold destruction.
In this shadowed realm of geopolitical intrigue, where nations dance on the razor's edge of catastrophe, the unfolding Ukrainian narrative demands more than passive observation; it calls for decisive action. This is not merely a regional conflict, but a critical juncture in the saga of global power politics, where the repercussions of inaction could be irreversible. International organizations, armed with the power to influence and intervene, must rise to this daunting challenge. They bear the responsibility to dissect and scrutinize the murky depths of Ukraine's nuclear ambitions, to prevent a slide into an unfathomable abyss. This is a clarion call for vigilance, for in the grand chess game of nations, the next move could either avert disaster or seal our collective fate. As the world stands at this precarious precipice, the urgency for a resolution has never been greater. If these allegations are proven true, it becomes a race against time to prevent the annals of history from being blotted by the shadow of a nuclear showdown, birthed from desperation and strategic myopia.
