Can Ukraine make nuclear weapons?

There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.

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.

Why do most men think that feminism is about dominance and not equality? I'm here for a male perspective. I'm a female.

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

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

Which he hadn’t.

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

Institute of Nuclear Research

How did a computer scientist such as Geoffrey Hinton manage to win a Nobel Prize in physics when computer science already has its own Nobel Prize equivalent in the Turing Awards?

“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.

And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.

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

But they say that they are not doing it.

Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.

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

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.

A bit of stocktaking:

The International Boxing Association said that Khelif and Lin competing in Paris Olympics were disqualified from the tournament for testing positive for XY chromosomes which give an unfair advantage in the women’s division. What do you think?

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.

A bit of history:

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.

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

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

Let me remind you of this guy:

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

In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.

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:

The recent statement by president Zelenskyy created quite a stir — the Ukrainian president said that to ensure its secure existence, Ukraine has only 2 options: to create its own nuclear weapons or to become a member of NATO.

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.
