I was recently invited to a conversation In The Bunker with the one and only Darth Putin (he is a strategic genius) and Katie Shmatsina. We talked about the Budapest Memorandum, nuclear weapons, The Cold War, and the situation and prospects in Ukraine.

Today is the 30th anniversary of the signing of the Budapest Memorandum, which saw the formal handover of strategic nuclear weapons in Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan to the Russian Federation.

Many people have questioned the Ukrainian decision to do this, especially in light of Russian aggression in recent years. For a rundown of why this occurred, please watch this Kings and Generals episode which David wrote last year.
