In 1994, #Ukraine was one of the very few countries in the world ever to give up its nuclear arsenal and demilitarise. Actual #nuclear disarmament!

In exchange, russia was one of the nuclear powers who committed to guarantee the #security, independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine.

Now, that very country - #russia - invaded non-nuclear Ukraine and constantly threatens to attack Ukrainians and those who uphold the Budapest Memorandum with nuclear bombs.

Think about that for a moment.

❗️Russia will completely exhaust the West's air defense in 2-3 months. Europe is not ready for war, - Zaluzhnyi

⚠️ NATO countries are still not looking for ways to counter Shaheds and missiles. Instead, they rely on F-16s and air defense systems, the number of which is limited.

The US believes russia fired a never-before-fielded intermediate-range ballistic missile on Thursday in its attack on #Ukraine, an escalation that analysts say could have implications for European missile defences.
