In some regions it is harder to ensure that nobody steals radioactive material or blows the plant up than in others.

Are any of these regions in the top 10 or 15 world economies?

Someone is trying to waste everyone’s time by saying “you want nuclear energy everywhere?!”

Small countries are a rounding error for global emissions.

Not if they are allowed to develop too. Are they not allowed to develop to western living and energy use standards per capita?

Nope. I’ll let you do the math.

Here’s a hint. China and India combined have 2.5 billion people

Taking before pandemic numbers of GDP and population numbers by 2100 from here https://www.populationpyramid.net/population-size-per-countr... , the top 15 of economies will only account for 40% of world population. ~25% coming from India and China as you said.

So 6 billion people living in these "small economy countries" will not appreciate your sentiment.
