As far as the crisis itself is concerned, there are many things worth thinking about. If you can list a lot in terms of political strategy, many terms such as chick game, crisis management, double-layer game and so on flashed in my mind when I watched the movie; but the most touching, it can also be said to be an eternal theme. The issue remains the issue of war and peace.
In fact, I believe that in today's world, most people are opposed to war, but blindly avoiding war does not mean the arrival of peace. As mentioned at the end of the film: What we want is not temporary peace, but permanent peace. Human history has witnessed too many killings, but since the emergence of nuclear weapons as a self-destructive weapon, most leaders of war countries have adopted a more cautious attitude, because once a nuclear war breaks out, what is coming is neither zero-sum. , And it is not a win-win situation. From this perspective, nuclear weapons can be regarded as a kind of blessing in disguise.
But I still feel that as long as nuclear weapons exist on this earth, mankind will always hang a sword of Damocles: some countries will still develop nuclear weapons for their own reliable security (using the so-called international morality). It is unrealistic to persuade sovereign states to abandon the development of nuclear weapons), and apart from what we generally think of as "rational actors"—states—the possibility of terrorism and sub-state groups getting nuclear weapons is increasing, so from this From a perspective, the nuclear threats we face in the international security environment are increasing.
But when it comes to nuclear weapons, I think of Japan’s nuclear leak, and I’m really afraid that the world doesn’t really need a nuclear war to wipe out mankind. A “peaceful” nuclear power plant is enough to bring devastating consequences.
