Ukraine says it can build nukes in weeks...

It claims it has the fuel, the knowledge, and the parts.

All it needs is the order from zelensku. He told trump in his meeting receny that Ukraine could either become a nuclear power or it could join NATO. He prefers to join NATO.

He added that the world should be more worried about Ukraines red lines than russias.

Indeed.

Three decades ago, the newly independent country of Ukraine was briefly the third-largest nuclear power in the world.

Thousands of nuclear arms had been left on Ukrainian soil by Moscow after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. But in the years that followed, Ukraine made the decision to completely denuclearize.

In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia would guarantee Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum.

Now, that agreement is front and center again.

4. Analysts have wondered for years if any were left behind...

Records were terrible, and monitoring was non-existant. Warheads could easily have been lost since there was never an accurate count or inventory. The soviet union never had that kind of control.

Ukraine could have easily kept fuel, triggers, and other components. They had the engineers and scientists. They have the reactors.

I dont think its a bluff at all.
