Yuriy Kostenko, Minister of Environmental Protection and Nuclear Safety of Ukraine in 1992-1998, author of the book “History of Nuclear Disarmament of Ukraine” said that it is impossible to produce nuclear weapons in any form under current conditions.
“According to international law and international documents ratified by Ukraine, primarily the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, Ukraine is a non-nuclear weapon state. So, as soon as Ukraine starts moving towards nuclear status, it will immediately face international sanctions. Including from our partners, who are providing Ukraine with weapons, economic and financial support,” said Yuriy Kostenko.
