MOSCOW, Nov 26 (Reuters) - Discussion in the West about arming Ukraine with nuclear weapons is "absolutely irresponsible", Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday, in response to a report in the New York Times citing unidentified officials who suggested such a possibility. The New York Times reported last week that some unidentified Western officials had suggested U.S. President Joe Biden could give Ukraine nuclear weapons before he leaves office.

Ukraine gave their nuclear weapons back to Russia for an agreement that Russia would never invade. Russia broke that promise when they invaded Crimea in 2008, it's way past due Ukraine gets it's nukes back. Russia should send them back, though in lieu of that, the West should give em a couple before Trump gets back in the big chair, you know, as a treat. A NATO pre welcoming gift.

Few nukes for deterrence. As a little treat as you say. Ten maybe. Fifty tops. Enough to definitely glass Vlad with absolute confidence.

Edit: and just to be clear, I really fucking mean that because Vlad is going to use a tactical nuke to rattle us all. I called this about two years ago and I fully expect him to do it because in his mind it makes sense. Prick.
