Nuclear capabilities

Nuclear capabilities refer to a country's ability to develop, maintain, and potentially use nuclear weapons or energy. Nuclear weapons are powerful explosive devices that release immense energy from atomic reactions, providing extreme destructive capability. Nuclear energy, on the other hand, is used peacefully for electricity generation. Having nuclear capabilities involves sophisticated technology, scientific expertise, and infrastructure, including reactors and missile delivery systems. Countries with nuclear capabilities can deter threats through strategic strength, but such power also presents significant security, ethical, and global stability considerations due to the potential for devastating conflict.
