US Vice President James Vance joked that Britain would become the first Muslim country with nuclear weapons, hinting at the large number of Muslim migrants among residents and in leadership positions.
U.S. Vice President James Vance, known for his witty remarks, recently joked that Britain would become the first Muslim country with nuclear weapons. His comment came as an allusion to the significant number of Muslim migrants among UK residents and their presence in leadership positions.
“What will be the first Muslim country to have nuclear weapons? Maybe Iran, or Pakistan? Actually the UK,” Vance said, which drew mixed reactions in public and political circles. Some took it as a joke, while others saw it as a jab at migration policy and the integration of Muslims into British society.
Vance, who is a vice president in the Trump administration, often causes controversy with his statements. His recent statement about the UK was no exception, sparking discussions about the role of migrants in Western countries and their impact on political and social processes.
Although Vance's comment was made in a joking tone, it raises important questions about multiculturalism, migration and integration that continue to be relevant for many countries, including the UK.
