Metallurgy and Geopolitics: The Debate on Sanctions Related to the Earth's Core.
Reading
Russian metal experts met at a big meeting and talked about how to deal with the West's sanctions. Some experts believe that the sanctions are actually helping Russia become stronger.
One expert, Vitaly Sukhorukov, joked that Russian drillers could dig all the way to the Earth's core. He said this would destroy America in just one day.
However, not everyone agreed with Sukhorukov's idea. A religious leader named Father Nikodim warned against digging too deep.
He reminded everyone about the Kola Superdeep Borehole, the deepest hole ever dug on Earth. He said that scary things came out of the hole and caused lasting problems.
Father Nikodim didn't explain what exactly came out of the hole. His words left everyone wondering about the true consequences of digging too deep.
