The Biden administration has excluded the possibility of returning nuclear weapons to Ukraine, stated US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. He denied information from Western media that the administration is open to giving Ukraine nuclear weapons. According to him, the issue is not even being discussed.

“We are building up various conventional capabilities for Ukraine so that they can effectively defend themselves and fight the Russians. But we are not talking about nuclear potential,” he stressed.

Putin commented on the prospect of nuclear weapons in Ukraine as follows: “In this case, we will use all means of destruction that are at Russia’s disposal. We will not allow this.”

The NYT reported that American and European officials offered to help Biden return nuclear weapons inherited from the USSR to Ukraine. The officials noted that the decision would be an immediate and powerful deterrent for the Kremlin.

Currently, Ukrainians are more eager for their state to regain its nuclear status than to become a member of NATO.
