I mean that's what Russia does, no? "We don't want Ukraine to have nuclear weapons"

Ukraine gave up their weapons a long time ago. It's Russian propaganda.

Says who? The same people who told you that 6 million people were gassed during the holohoax, the same people who told you bin laden did 9/11, the same people who said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

Ukraine is right next to Russia, so why would Russia allow them to have nukes? Would the US allow Mexico to have nukes.

This WMD argument is one of those choreographed social media things.

Loads of unrelated people all over the world suddenly started making the same argument at the same time.

Ukraine is not a sovereign nation. It's a CIA client state.
