Can Ukraine make nuclear weapons?

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.

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.

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

Before the USSR collapsed, Ukraine fully participated in the Soviet nuclear program.

A bit of history:

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:

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.

Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.

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

In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
