After Zelenskyy’s speech yesterday, the Russian propaganda channels are absolutely hysterical, trying to prove — mouths foaming — that Ukraine is unable to build nuclear weapons.
But they say that they are not doing it.
In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.
A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:
