On the Budapest agreement- my understanding is the nukes were only on Ukrainian territory by virtue of the rapid collapse of the soviet union and subsequent Ukrainian independence. Control of those nukes was never in Ukrainian hands. It was in everyone's best interests to get those missiles out of Ukraine due to the potential for nuclear material from corrupt & impoverished Ukrainians and put onto the black market. It should be noted that Russia assumed all soviet era debt of Ukraine, leaving it virtually debt free at independence. Also- sympathy for Zelensky regarding Russian invasion in violation of the Budapest agreement? Who started this? Who escalated this? Who tried on multuple occasions to find a diplomatic solution? Invade? More like liberate.

The go-to podcast for global macro economics

[@sciagurrato1831]

Geopolitics not macro, and not economics. An excellent channel.

Wonderful show Sir. The only exception I would take is on Budapest memorandum. Nuclear weapons never belonged to Ukraine. They only were deployed there. All the operations were conducted from Moscow anywhere in USSR they were staged.

I see comments here are controlled. Good to know.

[@MarkMark-ji6ts]

Depends what you write KZbin auto deletes comments. Especially sensitive any negative comments around Jews, the Imperial project known as Israel and other favourite projects like LGBT, climate change, covid (when it was being pushed) etc.. I have even had negative Bitcoin comments removed.

Ukraine did not inherit Nuclear Weapons from the USSR. Those weapons were the property of the USSR and then became the property of the USSR's legal successor the Russian Federation. They never ever belonged to the Ukrainians or the Kazakhs or anyone else who hosted Soviet Nukes. Ask yourself this Do you think the USSR handed over the launch codes for those Nukes to the Ukrainians or the Kazakhs? Right Of course not.
