Putin Announces Test of Poseidon Nuclear Drone Amid Western Skepticism
Russian President Vladimir Putin claims successful testing of the Poseidon underwater nuclear drone, a weapon designed to trigger radioactive tsunamis. The announcement, lacking independent verification, revives concerns over Moscow's strategic posturing.
Western analysts dismiss Poseidon as psychological warfare rather than a game-changer in nuclear deterrence. The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute confirms the program's active status, though physics experts question the feasibility of its apocalyptic branding.
