So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.
And Ukraine is the 10th largest Uranium producer on earth.
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:
Let me remind you of this guy:
There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.
And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.
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.

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.

In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
“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.
One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.
A bit of stocktaking:
“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.
Before the USSR collapsed, Ukraine fully participated in the Soviet nuclear program.
