Yes, those are the ones that have proliferation problems.



I'd hope that these obstacles could be battled with research and funding. All countries require affordable and carbon-free power, if we jointly took on research I strongly feel we could engineer out or around some of the issues.

Perhaps It's just an idealistic layman's perspective, either way I think more research in the nuclear power provision would be sensible.
