The world’s shaky response to recent U.S. nuclear strikes on Iran’s facilities has sparked a fiery debate about double standards in global security, says nuclear policy analyst Sahil Shah. 🌐⚛️
Shah highlights a glaring contrast: Western nations swiftly condemned Russia’s actions in Ukraine but offered muted reactions to the U.S. targeting of Iran’s nuclear sites. This inconsistency, he argues, undermines trust in international bodies like the UN Security Council and the IAEA, which failed to deliver strong protections or condemnation. 💬
"When powerful nations act without accountability, it chips away at the rules that keep us all safe," Shah told reporters. The lack of unified pushback risks normalizing attacks on critical infrastructure—a trend that could destabilize global diplomacy. 🔥
Young professionals and students, take note: This isn’t just about geopolitics. It’s about whether the frameworks designed to prevent chaos can survive in an era of selective outrage. 🧠🌍
