 U.S. to deploy nukes in UK for first time in 15 years amid Russian aggression. The United States plans to deploy nuclear weapons in Great Britain for the first time in 15 years as the threat from Russia increases according to reports from the Telegraph. Contracts for the supply of a new facility at the Royal Air Force Base, Lake and Heath in Suffolk, confirm that the United States intends to deploy nuclear warheads at the airbase. These warheads are reported to be three times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The U.S. withdrew nuclear warheads from Great Britain in 2008, believing that the Cold War threat from Russia had diminished. The revelation of this information comes amid warnings that NATO countries need to prepare their citizens for a potential war with Russia. Last week, Admiral Rob Bauer, a high-ranking NATO military official, stated that individuals should prepare for a total war with Russia within the next 20 years, necessitating significant changes in their lives. General Sir Patrick Sanders, the head of the British Army, further warned that in the event of a war with Russia, the public would need to be mobilized as the military was too small. The return of American weapons to the UK is part of a NATO-wide programme to develop and upgrade nuclear sites in response to heightened tensions with the Kremlin in the wake of the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, the article states.
