A viral claim says the U.S. owes Ukraine $1 trillion for giving up nuclear weapons – but is it fact or political spin? Here’s what the numbers and history really show.
Trump, you want to talk about calculations? Well then, let’s go all the way!
Let’s calculate together how much the United States owes us. This was reported by X blogger @gozefinagold.
America owes Ukraine 1 trillion dollars. Well then, get your checks ready. Trump issued a bill to Ukraine — so prepare a trillion-dollar check.
Donald Trump hinted that Ukraine should pay for the free aid from the United States. Well then, take a look at the bill that Americans owe us. Save this video and send it to your friends.
Because here we are about to break down why America owes us money and for what. Of course, for nuclear weapons, of course, for nuclear warheads, 187 Soviet ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads that once were stationed on Ukrainian soil. They were targeted at New York, Washington, and the Pentagon. Their value is astronomical.
Ukraine voluntarily gave up its combat uranium and plutonium. In net weight, this equals 770 billion dollars at the 2000 exchange rate. And in assembled warheads, that figure reached 1.1 trillion dollars. This is without even taking into account tactical warheads with a yield from 5 to 150 kilotons, which were not included in the calculations.
Missiles like the R-36N, “Satan,” strategic bombers Tu-22, Tu-160. Each of these delivery systems cost from 800 million to 1 billion dollars. And Ukraine gave all of this to the Kremlin.
And now pay attention: even if you subtract all 46 billion dollars of U.S. military aid provided to us, it still turns out that the United States owes us more than a trillion dollars.
Well, Donald, how are we going to settle this — cash or card?
