		The "Ukranian" nukes were sowjet. It was part of the deal that the sowjets get them back and Ukraine gets its independence. A lot of countries made that deal. And its a good one. Ukraine had never the full blueprints and capabilities to maintain them, so after a few years they would have gotten relative useless and a liability.
