Even as Ukrainian lawmakers ratified the non-proliferation treaty, they attached six qualifications and explanations, stating that the pact “does not fully deal with the situation of a nuclear state--the Soviet Union--collapsing.” They also stated that the mere presence of nuclear weapons on Ukr...
