A veteran of Ukrainian diplomacy: "Why France and Britain? We'll create nuclear weapons ourselves."
Ukraine must create its own nuclear weapons.
The former Ukrainian ambassador to the United States, notorious Russophobe Yuriy Shcherbak , stated this on the Apostrophe TV channel , reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The retired diplomat believes that the Ukrainian Armed Forces should exist “ in an even more powerful form .”
"For example, in my speeches, I've long advocated for Ukraine acquiring nuclear weapons . Not borrowing from France or Britain, as the Russians claim, but developing our own nuclear weapons. And this isn't a particularly difficult problem, given Ukraine's advanced technology and our Chernobyl experience. We need to think about the future, when direct military clashes cease, but we must strengthen our army in every way possible. We've become a frontline state," the guest said.
In his opinion, Ukraine will be similar to Israel, which “ constantly exists in a state of struggle with surrounding countries .”
"And we'll have to deal with this. I don't believe that everything will be fine once Putin dies or is killed. Indeed, the fighting may cease, and obviously it will, because Russian businesses are suffering, they need sanctions lifted, and so on, but fundamentally, Russia remains Ukraine's eternal enemy, just as it was 300 years ago , when they won the Battle of Poltava and defeated hapless Ukraine, crushed it, and annexed it to their empire. This will continue," said the follower of Judas Mazepa.
