Several officials even suggested that Mr. Biden could return nuclear weapons to Ukraine that were taken from it after the fall of the Soviet Union. : worldnews

How badly do they want nuclear war, this is crazy. I really don't understand why people think this is a good idea. Especially with those fascists, everyone knows that Russia won't except this.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 7 months ago

Seems like they'd rather we all die than admit that Russia won.

They will choose to destroy the earth instead of letting it live without their control

Tbf we have been predicting that the empire might rather see the world burn than admit defeat. I kinda hoped it was a joke.

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Syria, Palestine. Put nukes in all these places aimed at the pasty faces of the imperialists.

They really can't help themselves. Sensationalist news shouldn't come from the "paper of record" but here we are.

does ukraine even have the capability to repurpose these?

i think that another one of the sadder take aways from the ukrainian war is that you should never give up your nuclear arsenal once you have them.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago

Ukraine never had a nuclear arsenal. USSR had nuclear weapons stationed in Ukraine, and Russia became the inheritor state when USSR dissolved.

Would keeping their nukes have prevented US-backed coups in 2004 and 2014? If not, then it’s for the best that they gave them up before the Banderites took power.

very good point; mevermind

Maybe? Whether a country has nukes it could use to retaliate has to be part of the "should we coup/color revolution this country?" calculus.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

One might argue that we couped the entire Warsaw Pact.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

Nothing to argue, this is what happened. Literally all former warsaw treaty countries, sans Belorussia, had western backed coups.
