    Lavrov could carry a nuclear weapon. Is Lavrov a nuclear threat? Not to mention that Russia actually has access to weapons in said class, unlike Ukraine and F-16-deployable nuclear weapons, and theoretically one could be strapped to Lavrov.

      Good point. I think Lavrov should be checked every day, to make sure he can still breathe with his head up his butt. Not for his benefit, so much as to see if he also has a nuke in there.
