Nuclear Security Analyst Joe Cirincione and former Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes join Andrea Mitchell to examine growing fears of nuclear disaster amid recent attacks on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear complex. “We don't have secure communications. We don't have secure power. The staff is operating at gunpoint. And of course, now we have shelling in and around the facility risking the structural integrity of the facility itself,” says Cirincione. “We are looking at a major release of radioactivity that will contaminate large parts of Ukraine and Russia itself.”  » Subscribe to MSNBC: http://on.msnbc.com/SubscribeTomsnbc About: MSNBC is the premier destination for in-depth analysis of daily headlines, insightful political commentary and informed perspectives.
