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.
In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
But they say that they are not doing it.
“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.
One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.

Let me remind you of this guy:
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.
