Posted: 25th February 2021

Alongside the 1200-page Brexit
trade and security agreement the UK and EU agreed a self-standing 18-page
accord on nuclear co-operation, which is strong on outlining the importance
of nuclear safeguards, peaceful uses of nuclear materials and regulatory
oversight. The new nuclear agreement between the UK and EU, allows the
militarization of the entire 140,000 kilogramme stockpile of plutonium in
store at Sellafield. For context, a nuclear warhead may be made with 5
kilogrammes.
