U.S. lawmakers are pushing back hard against Ukraine’s dramatic request for nuclear weapons and fast-track NATO membership, warning that such demands could ignite a direct clash with Russia. Senator Lindsey Graham slammed former Ukrainian General Valerii Zaluzhny’s proposed security plan—calling it “unreasonable” and far beyond anything the U.S. or NATO would consider. Washington fears that deploying nukes or foreign troops in Ukraine could trigger a catastrophic escalation with Moscow, which has repeatedly warned that such moves would be seen as acts of war. As tensions climb, Ukraine faces shrinking options for long-term security guarantees while Western leaders struggle to avoid a wider global conflict.
