    Does he even need to send them anything? Doesn’t he just have to say a few words to give Ukraine permission to build their own? Although I guess if they lose US support, they wouldn’t need permission anymore.

      He already did, it’s right there in the Bible:

      Genesis 6:9
      “And Bidens said, ‘Let there be light’. Then he slapped on his Aviators, took a sweet slide over the hood, and hopped in his 1967 Stingray and drove off into the sunset.”

      Making a nuke is pretty difficult, even for a whole nation. It would probably take years for them to develop a nuke if they started from scratch.

        Well, they ain’t starting from scratch, cause they designed a bunch of nukes for the USSR.

        They almost certainly have workable designs in a file drawer, and the old facilities are all in Ukraine too. It’s a question of how much decommissioning those got in the nineties, and how long it takes to enrich the uranium.
