Can Ukraine make nuclear weapons?

However, when asked, “How long would it take for Ukraine to build a nuclear bomb?,” at the joint press conference in Brussels with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, President Zelenskyy downplayed the issue, stating effectively:

A bit of stocktaking:

And they aren’t telling us how long would it take Ukraine to make its own NW.
