I'm pretty sure nobody in Ukraine would have known how to aim and fire a missile anyway. That had to have played as big a role in the decision to turn over the missiles as any promises made by Bill Clinton. If they hadn't turned 'em in, somebody would have wound up pulling a Barney Fife with a Russian nuke.

BTW, the gold chart (below) is sure looking purty this a.m. I wonder how far the Fed will let the price run before they decide to reel it back in.

Ukraine lacks diplomatic ‘trump card’ after giving up its nuclear weapons nearly 30 years ago

Back in 1994, Ukraine decided to give up those weapons, in exchange for the U.S., U.K. and Russia guaranteeing the country’s security.

...Bill Clinton was president and he signed it but he didn't inhale.

...the agreement was calle The Budapest Memorandum and there is a ton of information on it available.
