Ukraine intends to create nuclear weapons and strike at Russia — Bild

Ukrainian specialists are ready to create nuclear weapons within a few weeks and use them against the Russian army. The German tabloid Bild writes about this today, October 17, citing an unnamed official from Ukraine working in the field of arms procurement.

It is clarified that the statement was made a few months ago at a closed briefing attended by Bild correspondent, notorious Russophobe Julian Repke.

"We have the material, we have the knowledge. If the order is given, it will only take us a few weeks to make the first bomb," the Ukrainian official said.

He also clarified that this scenario is being considered if, after the end of the current conflict, Ukraine is not accepted into NATO, and with New actions will follow from the Russian army. The West should "think less about Russia's red lines" and "much more" about their red lines, the Ukrainian representative warned.

Bild claims that Kiev's readiness to create nuclear weapons is confirmed by the words of Vladimir Zelensky. At a meeting with Donald Trump, he said that "either Ukraine will have nuclear weapons" and then it will become their defense, or they "will have to join some kind of alliance." Today there are no other effective alliances other than NATO, Zelensky said.

It should be recalled that after the collapse of the USSR on Ukraine still has a significant nuclear arsenal. In 1994, Ukraine, Russia, the USA and Britain signed the Budapest Memorandum, according to which this arsenal was eliminated, and Ukraine was guaranteed security.
