🇺🇦 Ukraine could develop a rudimentary nuclear bomb within months if Donald Trump withdraws 🇺🇸 US military assistance, according to a briefing paper prepared for the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence.
The country would quickly be able to build a basic device from plutonium with a similar technology to the “Fat Man” bomb dropped on Nagasaki in 1945, the report states.
“Creating a simple atomic bomb, as the United States did within the framework of the Manhattan Project, would not be a difficult task 80 years later,” the document reads.
With no time to build and run the large facilities required to enrich uranium, wartime Ukraine would have to rely instead on using plutonium extracted from spent fuel rods taken from Ukraine’s nuclear reactors.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is approaching its 3rd year. In search of security guarantees like NATO membership, Ukraine has been left in limbo due to Russian-occupied territories and Western bureaucracy.
In light of Russian advances and Western indecision, Kyiv has stated that NATO membership is one path to victory and negotiations on its own terms. If membership remains out of reach, Ukraine may restart its nuclear program, triggering a domino effect of nuclear proliferation, a consequence the West would directly bear due to its failure to manage escalation.
After two years of negotiations and no security guarantees from major Western powers, as well as a stalled NATO path, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that a resolution to the war would include NATO membership or a pathway to nuclear weapons.
After the Soviet Union separated, Ukraine hosted Russian Nukes which were some of the largest nuclear arsenals in existence. Many Soviet-era missile silos were located within its borders with Russia holding the launch codes.
They shouldn’t provoke Russia to use Nukes on them, Russia is has the most powerful nuke Arsenal second to the US, the can wipe out Ukraine if they want to, Ukraine should be very careful

Russia Using Nuclear Bombs can help him win the war, but it will turn all other countries against them and eventually everyone will die, because with Nuclear Weapons, the capability of some of them can wipe out entire countries.
