Let me remind you of this guy:
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.

So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.
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.
There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.

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

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.
A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:
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.
What are some creepy bestiality-promoting questions obviously asked for sexual gratification?
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.
Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.
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.
Atheists who have read the Bible and think that contains immoral things, why do you assume that?
In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
And Ukraine is the 10th largest Uranium producer on earth.
And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.

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