Volker warned Kiev against the restoration of a nuclear arsenal

50
In the United States, they reacted to the slogans constantly arriving from Kiev that Ukraine could and should turn into another nuclear state by creating its own nuclear weapon. In an interview with the Ukrainian television channel Pryamoy, the US Special Representative for Ukraine Kurt Volker said that it would be a mistake for Ukraine to create its own nuclear potential.

Recall that until 1994, an impressive arsenal of nuclear weapons remained on Ukrainian territory, but as a result of the agreements (the Budapest Memorandum), Ukraine lost its nuclear weapons.

Kurt Walker:
The refusal (of nuclear weapons) was not a mistake. If Ukraine had not joined countries that had refused to give up nuclear weapons, this would not have been a good solution. I do not think that nuclear weapons would be positive for Ukraine. And I would not like Ukraine to take the path of restoring this (nuclear potential).


Volker warned Kiev against the restoration of a nuclear arsenal


In the same interview, Volker promised that the United States would support Ukraine, and, commenting on the status of the Crimea, said that when signing the Budapest Memorandum, “the United States could not think in 1994 that Russia could do that.”

"Can not do" how? - to ask people about their own opinion in the course of a democratic procedure - a referendum - and save them from genocide? Oh yes ... Crimea is not Kosovo ...

    What kind of nuclear weapons is this ... It's like Hitler would have had a bomb in 1944 .. More precisely, no. There would have been ashes in the place of the flourishing Soviet Republic ..

              Hey. The ruinous leaders of the rulers have long turned into a monkey with a grenade, to give nuclear weapons to this monkey’s claws is to doom mankind to a death apocalypse. Even bastard Russophobes such as the United States and NATO understand this. In the DPRK, they do not massively destroy their fellow citizens and do not teach children to eat the hearts of "Muscovite infants." Before that, even Papuan cannibals did not think of it. But for “Europe” this is normal, they associate, support, even allocate money for this “progress” and squeeze the bloody little hands of nonhumans. fool

    Even the United States understands that a monkey, albeit even a hand one, is not only not worth giving a grenade, but is also harmful to the health of others. I immediately remembered the video from Africa where the militants (little different in their behavior from primates) gave the monkey AK. How it all ended, many saw.

      Something I, too, had a thought about it .. Legendary Satan missiles were produced in Ukraine! And Eun, in my opinion, launches "rackets" for 250 km and part of it falls naturally .. And deep in the dungeon, a couple of nuclear-filled SS-20s are waiting in the wings! And this one, the quick escape of Yaytsenyukh from the post of prime minister and his malicious smile, is obviously also involved ... While Potroshenko was thumping!

    Of course, special. Missiles are worthless, not a penny (Korean). Therefore, you can specifically launch them and so that some of them fall without fail. Probably in order to "gloss over the eyes of others." Have you tried to write alternative fantasy? In order to do at least something distant, similar to the SS-20, oh, how many years will it take them, despite all the successes of their nuclear program. SS-20 were A MASTERPIECE Soviet solid rocket rocketry of medium-range products. And here they have the usual solid fuel flies every other time, and there - "in the dungeon a couple of SS-20"

    Ukraine refused nuclear weapons on the condition that Russia takes upon itself all the international debts of the USSR - about 100 billion dollars. Initially, it was proposed to divide all debts in proportion to the population of each of the republics of the USSR. The last 125 million dollars of debts Russia paid this summer. All the former "fraternal" republics are pulling everything that is possible from Russia. It's time to put them in their place. The Baltic States have already begun to set, I hope they will put others.

    To create a nuclear bomb, you need 45-50 kg of weapons-grade uranium. For Ukraine, collecting so much is unthinkable, for having collected 1 kg it will be ... burned and sold. First, uranium, and then the whole laboratory in parts. So 404 will go to the nuclear club not soon. wassat
