Your question is invalid. This has NOTHING AT ALL to do with nuclear non-proliferation. If we don’t help Ukraine this will not make the world suddenly start developing nukes.

THAT is my answer, your question is a red herring.

***Okay, so the Budapest Accession to the United Nations Nuclear Non Proliferation TREATY has nothing to do with nuclear non-proliferation. I think I finally figured out where you’re coming from — and denial aint a river in egypt.

Registration Number 52241
Title Memorandum on security assurances in connection with Ukraine’s accession to the TREATY on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons

***Your denial-based assertion. It goes back to that a priori self-affirming assertion that the US shouldn’t get involved in European affairs, that kind of thing. It’s pretty shallow thinking.

THAT is my answer, your question is a red herring.
***You do not even know what a red herring is.

Red herring
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_herring

A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important question.[1] It may be either a logical fallacy or a literary device that leads readers or audiences toward a false conclusion. A red herring may be used intentionally, as in mystery fiction or as part of rhetorical strategies (e.g., in politics), or may be used in argumentation inadvertently.[2]

The term was popularized in 1807 by English polemicist William Cobbett, who told a story of having used a strong-smelling smoked fish to divert and distract hounds from chasing a rabbit.[3]
