If Ukraine still had nukes, Russia would never have invaded. Yet in 1994, the west convinced Ukraine to disarm - in return for security & sovereignty. Now, Trump is siding with Putin. This is the worst betrayal in recent geopolitical history. | Caolan Robertson

Sorry, but this is a badly misinformed analysis. Ukraine never had a "nuclear arsenal" to give up. It inherited weapons it couldn’t control; the launch codes were in Moscow. Much like how today's Germany has nukes on its soil, but they are controlled by Washington. In the early 1990s, in the wake of the Soviet collapse, the US and Britain pushed the new government in Kiev to send the Soviet legacy nukes to Russia (under the CTR program) fearing nuclear materials might leak onto the black market.
