The Senate never ratified it, therefore it is non-binding.
It's non-binding. But after what happened to Qadaffi in Libya and now with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the word is out on the street. You better get your nuclear weapons now if you want to maintain your territorial integrity.
I think nuclear proliferation is a bad idea and we've been lucky so far. Our luck may run out. So it's only a matter of time before we'll see Hiroshima and Nagasaki again. Probably in our lifetimes.

Ukrainians CAUGHT Largest Network of Russian Spies. Top Russian General Fired | Ukraine War Update
In today’s war between Ukraine and Russia, strategic activities such as covert operations and intelligence work have overshadowed the clashes on the front lines. In the critical Ukrainian clash area between Zaporizhia and Donetsk, particularly in Verbove, Kiev forces continued to breach Russian defensive lines with western armored vehicles and main battle tanks, while the Ukrainian intelligence directorate’s operations against the largest Russian spy network ever shook the agenda.
Also today, the impact of cross-border operations by Ukrainian partisans was another major activity that deeply affected Moscow. While all these negative developments for the Russians hurt Moscow deeply, in the Donetsk region of Ukraine, a striking speculation emerged about a high-ranking general of the Russian army. As you can see, this week has been a nightmare for Russia. Let’s move on to our first news.
Today, there were reports that the largest Russian spy network in Ukraine has been dismantled. One of the largest networks of Russian spies was operating near Mykolaiv. Among them were 13 informants who were exposed by the Ukrainian Intelligence Directorate. Following the discovery of critical data on the Russian spy network, the Security Service of Ukraine conducted a large-scale special operation in the Mykolaiv region, as a result of which the largest Russian spy network was neutralized.
As a result of the operations, the Ukrainian Intelligence officers identified all the participants of the Russian secret service and detained them in different places. The captured Russian informants transmitted the coordinates of Ukrainian facilities to the FSB through a contact. Ukrainian Intelligence revealed that the contact through whom the Russian informants transmitted the data to the FSB was pro-Kremlin blogger Sergei Lebedev, better known by his nickname Shaggy.
Ukrainian Intelligence reported on Lebedev’s intelligence and explosive activities against the Kiev leadership and suspicion of high treason and violation of the laws and customs of war. During the investigation into Shaggy’s criminal actions, it turned out that on the instructions of the FSB he had remotely set up his own agency on the territory of the Mykolaiv region. This network of agents included 13 local subscribers of the Telegram channel. Using this Internet resource, the accused recruited his agents and then received information from them.
So far, the accused are reportedly under arrest. Based on the collected evidence, investigators of the Ukrainian Intelligence charged nine detainees under Article 114-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Article 114-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The Ukrainian Court also found four other participants of the enemy organization guilty and sentenced them to 8 to 15 years in prison.
The arrested Russian informants were collecting information on the location and movements of Ukrainian defense forces in the southern region. They were also coordinating Russian air strikes on the residential and social infrastructure of the regional center. In addition to intelligence work, you may recall that in the fall of 2022, the Russian invaders, acting on a tip-off from agents of this network, bombed a multi-storey building in Mykolaiv with the S-300 surface-to-air missile system.
As a result of these attacks, 7 Ukrainian civilians were killed by enemy fire. In other words, by dismantling the Russian spy network in Mykolaiv, the Ukrainian Intelligence Directorate actually prevented Moscow’s civilian attacks from spreading to Ukrainian territory.
Of course, Ukrainians are now making critical moves against the Russian spy network. Ukrainian partisans are particularly prominent in this regard. Today it was revealed that Ukrainian partisans blew up a facility in Rostov-On-Don where Russian army uniforms were found and an ammunition depot of enemy troops. After the partisans’ offensive actions, a large-scale fire broke out in the city. The fire spread over more than 300 square meters on Shosseynaya street.
As a result of the fire, a large amount of military equipment and uniforms belonging to the Russian army were reportedly destroyed. The stock of uniforms in the left bank industrial zone near Megamag on Shosseinaya street was completely depleted after this critical fire. Activists of the Screpach underground movement claimed responsibility for this act of aggression.
