Artikel Atlantisch Perspectief
Pakistan
Earlier this year, the Pakistani Taliban attacked a marine-airport base in Karachi that functions as a storage facility for nuclear weapons. According to Hans Schippers, the Taliban and other terrorist groups will not hesitate get their hands on a nuclear weapon if they see an opportunity. This article examines the security situation concerning the Pakistani nuclear arsenal and the important role of the relationship between Pakistan and the US. Experts remain worried about the atomic power of Pakistan, despite progress that has been made. Hans Schippers argues that the possible ties between Muslim extremists, the military, and members of the ISI constitute the biggest danger.
