And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.
Zelensky said that he only spoke about Ukraine giving up nukes under the Budapest memorandum, in exchange to security guarantees — and still, Russia invaded Ukraine twice in the last 10 years.
Which he hadn’t.

In 1993, Ukraine had 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.

But they say that they are not doing it.
After Zelenskyy’s speech yesterday, the Russian propaganda channels are absolutely hysterical, trying to prove — mouths foaming — that Ukraine is unable to build nuclear weapons.
A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:
And Ukraine is the 10th largest Uranium producer on earth.

Ukraine surrendered its nuclear arsenal to Russia, on “security guarantees” from the U.S. and U.K. Russia, too, vouched to guarantee Ukraine’s sovereignty and security.

There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.
“We have never said that we are preparing to create a nuclear weapon.”
He only said that to live in safety, Ukraine either needs membership in NATO — or nukes. And that Ukraine wants to be in NATO, to be safe.
