And? Russia put them in Cuba, and later got them out.

Russia could have asked for this guarantee if it really cared about, it wasn't even a topic of discussion.

They did exactly that, only to be ignored, and denied that they could even ask for it.

Soviet Union had nukes, not Ukraine.


Not sure what you mean. I'm just saying that obviously if Ukraine joined Nato, they would get (even more) missiles. The US has been arming Ukraine for a long time already, to the tune of hundreds of millions every year.

Trump's first impeachment was related exactly to this.
