There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.
But they say that they are not doing it.
“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.

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.
And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.
In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.

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.
In 1993, Ukraine had 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
Which he hadn’t.

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

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