Can Ukraine make nuclear weapons?

Let me remind you of this guy:
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.
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.
There were 10 missile divisions with intercontinental nuclear missiles with a range of 11,000 km.
In 1993, Ukraine had 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
A number of nuclear research institutes involved in these projects are still operational in Ukraine, including:
Ukraine had 1,272 nuclear warheads for intercontinental missiles.
Which he hadn’t.

A bit of stocktaking:
“That means, that is not a very good umbrella for our security,” pointed Zelenskyy — this is why Ukraine needs NATO.

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.
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.

“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.
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:
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.

Before the USSR collapsed, Ukraine fully participated in the Soviet nuclear program.
“We have never said that we are preparing to create a nuclear weapon.”
So, here it is: yes, Ukraine could make nuclear weapons — if they wanted to.

But they say that they are not doing it.
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.
One of the world’s poorest states, North Korea, reportedly possesses 50 locally built nuclear warheads.
