Going nuclear?

Terve Michael,
Thanks for notifying me of world events.

"- - - 1975 CIA report:
predicted to go nuclear between 1975 and 1985 "
If "going nuclear" means 'building a nuclear device, exploding device' Finland definitely has ended up in a strange company. The CIA operatives responsible for this estimate would benefit from a trip to Finland.
Thank God, Finland is a very northern country, between 60th and 70th latitudes, about the same as Alaska. Let's hope those pagans hurling nuclear missiles at one another don't regard Finland as a primary target.

There are two nuclear power plants in Finland, two reactors in each and the fifth reactor almost finished. The Loviisa-1 started to produce electricity in 1977.
