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.
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.

“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.
And Ukraine is the 10th largest Uranium producer on earth.
One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.
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.

So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.
Pariatur et vero magni aperiam nulla.
Which he hadn’t.

A bit of history:
