in the 90's Ukraine was loaded with nuclear, then in Budapest treaty the top dogs like: usa, uk, china france and RUSSIA fuckers, "Assured security" in exchange of disarmament.
It was stupid from Ukraine to give a inch of trust to this bunch of fuckers.
Ukraine had the world's third-largest nuclear weapons stockpile,[2][3] of which Ukraine had physical, but not operational, control. Russia alone controlled the codes needed to operate the nuclear weapons[4][5] via Russian-controlled electronic Permissive Action Links and the Russian command and control system.[4][5]
Second? I think they are first in stockpileIn a ideal world Putin would be held accountable .
The reality is they're the second biggest nuclear state and US direct involvement would be disastrous for the whole world
If Putin doesn't back down, it seems inevitable. Because anything less will be an invitation for Putin to flex his expansionary intentions even more. Where, then, does it end? Yeah, it's one hell of a conundrum.US direct involvement would be disastrous for the whole world
