The problem is there's no such thing as "liberal influencers." All the most successful ones are leftists who hate Democrats. Saying Democrats are doing good doesn't get views and likes, all successful influencers on "the left" attack Democratic candidates and say both sides are bad.

No, you know nothing about what it takes to have a functioning nuclear arsenal. Everyone thinks they do, but they don't. It takes more than having nuclear plants, that doesn't not equal straightforward weapons capability. It takes more beyond that, which they didn't have and couldn't afford to make

One part of the agreement not talked about is that Ukraine got tens of billions of dollars in development aid for giving up the arsenal (that it couldn't use anyway). If they wanted an operational nuclear force they would have needed a lot of funding that they simply didn't have.
kevindragos.bsky.social (@kevindragos.bsky.social) reply parent
Ukraine couldn't use the nukes. The activation codes were in Moscow. More importantly, they couldn't maintain them. It costs a lot to maintain a nuclear arsenal and newly independent Ukraine didn't have the resources for it.

It'd be kind of funny if Japan and the US did have a more adversarial relationship in the early 2000s, then China still overtook Japan as the world's 2nd largest economy in the early 2010s. What happens then? Do the US and Japan join to counter China, or is there a 3-power race for dominance?
