Blame Khrushchev for this.

Of course back then Khrushchev had no idea the Soviet Union would one day break up...But this issue should have been one of the very first things settled after the breakup of the Soviet Union, and Yeltsin was too drunk to deal with it.

It was settled - Ukraine kept the Crimea and gave up its nukes.
