Commenting on this information, Zakharova recalled the recent statement by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that Ukraine would either join the North Atlantic Alliance or acquire nuclear weapons.

A representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry noted that just a week later, Kyiv backed down.

So that he wouldn't yap about nuclear weapons, they gave him 50 billion. Well, is it a pity? Dollars are not backed by anything anyway. There is paper, and ink too, - the diplomat wrote on Telegram.
