Can Ukraine make nuclear weapons?

“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.

“We have never said that we are preparing to create a nuclear weapon.”

Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.

So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.

A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:

Can you name an example of bad parenting?

If North Korea can do it, a former nuclear power that still has the scientists and engineers who built the Soviet nukes, can certainly do it.

One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.

In 1993, Ukraine had 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in the world.

However, when asked, “How long would it take for Ukraine to build a nuclear bomb?,” at the joint press conference in Brussels with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, President Zelenskyy downplayed the issue, stating effectively:

But they say that they are not doing it.

And Ukraine is the 10th largest Uranium producer on earth.

Do you anal play alone?

“But we don’t do nuclear weapons,” stated Zelenskyy, ending his answer, and asked the journalist who posed the question not to move” such messages.

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.

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.

In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
