Ukraine could develop a rudimentary nuclear bomb within months if Donald Trump pulls US military aid, a briefing paper prepared for the country’s Ministry of Defence has revealed.
The weapon would be built from plutonium and use similar technology to the nuclear bomb dropped on Nagasaki in 1945, the report stated.
Even though Ukraine gave up its nuclear armament in 1996, it still maintains control of nine working reactors and possesses substantial nuclear construction experience.
It comes after Trump reportedly backed the shock ultimatum President Volodymyr Zelensky gave NATO last month when he seemed to demand either Ukraine be granted membership of the bloc or they would become a nuclear power.
Kyiv has now denied that they are thinking of developing a nuclear weapon, and Zelensky later explained that he had meant that there was no alternative security assurance.
According to The Times, the briefing paper prepared for the Ministry of Defence reads: ‘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 weight of reactor plutonium available to Ukraine can be estimated at seven tonnes… A significant nuclear weapons arsenal would require much less material,’ it continued.
The authors of the study concluded that the bomb would be large enough to destroy concentrated military or industrial objectives or an entire Russian airbase.
It comes as president-elect Trump has famously pledged to end the Russia-Ukraine war within a day of becoming president and has boasted of his ‘very good relationship’ with President Putin.
He has also questioned Biden’s degree of support for Ukraine, despite President Zelensky’s staunch opposition to ceding land to Russia and said that the invasion would never have occurred if he had been in the White House.
It comes after Zelensky last month reportedly told NATO to let his country join the group or it would get nuclear weapons in a shock ultimatum that was allegedly backed by Trump.
The leader, 46, declared his bombshell proposal at the EU summit in Brussels, stating either NATO quickly accepts Ukraine into its alliance or it will once again become a nuclear power, the German newspaper Bild reported.
Zelensky had reportedly planned to present what is being dubbed his ‘victory plan’ to the heads of state and government of the European Union but instead made the dramatic announcement to stunned reporters.
Given his willingness to comply with Putin’s orders, it appears that Trump’s peace strategy calls for Ukraine to cede a portion of its territory to Russia, but the fact that Zelensky is willing to use nuclear weapons tells the world that he needs to be removed.
In reality, Putin and Zelensky both need to be removed because Putin threatens nuclear war every week and we know he has them.
Putin and Zelensky have both gone from being nastily mad to being officially insane, and they are both on cloud cuckoo.
These individuals are insane, and we shouldn’t be going around the world starting wars and if they think they’re going to run away from this one without any blowback, they can think again.
