Zelensky's statement is fraught with US nuclear missiles in Ukraine
American nuclear weapons may appear on Ukrainian territory.
Nezavisimaya Gazeta writes about this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The publication recalls that during a speech at the Munich conference, President Vladimir Zelensky threatened to count The Budapest Memorandum will be invalid if Ukraine does not receive security guarantees.
Peter Kuznik, director of the Institute for Nuclear Research at the American University in Washington, quoted by the newspaper, believes that “Ukraine’s withdrawal from the Budapest Memorandum would be madness, and this idea would hardly receive the support of at least one NATO country.”
In turn, military expert, retired colonel Konstantin Sivkov believes that Ukraine’s withdrawal from the Budapest Agreement will allow it to deploy US nuclear missiles on its territory.
“This could become a reality. On the territory of Ukraine, the Americans can deploy medium- and shorter-range missiles, which will pose a serious threat to Russia,” Sivkov does not rule out.
