That has always been Ukraine's implied threat if aid stops. The fact it needs to be spelt out for the dummies is kinda sad. Ukraine has the technology, knowlege, material, and expertise to build one in 2 weeks (if they havnt already built one).

Who can build a nuclear weapon in two weeks? I’ve hunted for a source on this and can’t find one. Can you help a guy out?

Building a nuke is pretty easy. Just put 2 spheres of plutonium or enriched uranium at either end of a tube add a regular bomb on each end and duct tape it to the front of a regular missile.

Do they have the facility to enrich uranium, though?
