It is not silly idea, it is Russian misinformation. "The corrupt fascist gay West we are under constant attack by wants to put army on our borders," except in nicer words.
- Grustaf 5y agoThey have discussed putting nuclear missiles in Sweden, who isn’t even a member. Plus the US has already been arming Ukraine, hasn’t it?
- raducu 5y agoAnd? Russia put them in Cuba, and later got them out. Russia could have asked for this guarantee if it really cared about, it wasn't even a topic of discussion. Ukraine had nukes and gave them up. Nukes in Ukraine would be such a ridiculous topic that Putin didn't even dare to bring up.

Whaaat? It is public, you won't have any trouble to find it. > Ukraine had nukes and gave them up. Soviet Union had nukes, not Ukraine.
- Grustaf 5y agoNot sure what you mean. I'm just saying that obviously if Ukraine joined Nato, they would get (even more) missiles. The US has been arming Ukraine for a long time already, to the tune of hundreds of millions every year. Trump's first impeachment was related exactly to this.
