Ukraine gave up nukes in 1993 for a promise from the US they'd intervene to protect it from Russia.

    Nobody at this point should ever trust the United States on its word.

    In 1994, through an accident of fate, the newly independent country of Ukraine found itself in possession of the world's third largest nuclear arsenal.

    At first, Ukraine planned to keep its nuclear weapons. But, at the insistence of the two strongest powers in the world -- Russia and the United States -- Ukraine agreed to give up their nukes in exchange for perpetual guarantees of sovereignty and territorial integrity.

    This supposedly ironclad treaty, signed 20 years ago, was the Budapest Memorandum.

    Even with such a huge arsenal nukes, Putin would have made sure they would have been secured before pressing on. Not like they would have used them anyway.

    considering the US set this whole thing in motion by running a regime change operation against them, which I'm pretty sure counts as not 'to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine', duh

    Miss Muffet was from an old nursery rhyme

    Little Miss Muffet
    Sat on a tuffet,
    Eating her curds and whey;
    There came a big spider,
    Who sat down beside her
    And frightened Miss Muffet away.

    I remember thinking even as a kid that the puppets in Sesame Street were fucked

    especially that brown elephant with an uncurcumcised cock for a head
