There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.
However, when asked, “How long would it take for Ukraine to build a nuclear bomb?,” at the joint press conference in Brussels with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, President Zelenskyy downplayed the issue, stating effectively:
“We have never said that we are preparing to create a nuclear weapon.”
Is anyone up to have a little conversation?

After Zelenskyy’s speech yesterday, the Russian propaganda channels are absolutely hysterical, trying to prove — mouths foaming — that Ukraine is unable to build nuclear weapons.
A bit of stocktaking:
Is helping Ukraine worth risking WW3?
Ukraine surrendered its nuclear arsenal to Russia, on “security guarantees” from the U.S. and U.K. Russia, too, vouched to guarantee Ukraine’s sovereignty and security.
“But we don’t do nuclear weapons,” stated Zelenskyy, ending his answer, and asked the journalist who posed the question not to move” such messages.
If North Korea can do it, a former nuclear power that still has the scientists and engineers who built the Soviet nukes, can certainly do it.

A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:
Before the USSR collapsed, Ukraine fully participated in the Soviet nuclear program.
“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.
Why did Trump call Biden and Schumer Palestinians?
He only said that to live in safety, Ukraine either needs membership in NATO — or nukes. And that Ukraine wants to be in NATO, to be safe.
But they say that they are not doing it.
In addition, Ukraine owned thousands of tactical nukes.

One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.
Zelensky said that he only spoke about Ukraine giving up nukes under the Budapest memorandum, in exchange to security guarantees — and still, Russia invaded Ukraine twice in the last 10 years.
Which he hadn’t.
What is your review of The Office (U.S. TV series)?
Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.

So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.
The recent statement by president Zelenskyy created quite a stir — the Ukrainian president said that to ensure its secure existence, Ukraine has only 2 options: to create its own nuclear weapons or to become a member of NATO.
