«it could explode at any moment»
the commander of the russian navy, admiral vladimir kuroyedov, said wednesday morning that the pyotr veliky, the nuclear-powered flagship of the northern fleet, was in such bad shape it could explode 'at any moment'.russian news outlets quoted kuroyedov as saying that everything is in order in those parts of the ship where admirals walk, but as to places where they don't walk, everything is in such a condition that it could blow up into the air; the contents of the nuclear reactor, among other things.
the man's on a roll. while the world indeed needs to understand that the dangers of nuclear weapons are not limited to their use, the poor bastard can't seem to do anyting right. just last month he was roasted in the press for publicly denying the launch failure of an RSM-54 ballistic missile during a strategic war game 17 february attended by putin.
and as you may remember, kuroyedov is the man who shortly after the kursk sank killing all 118 on board told russian news agencies that the crew was in no danger and that air was being pumped into the submarine.
