Don't distort amd lie. 'Ukraine at the suggestion of the West, renouned nuclear weapons and heavy bombers. '
You are wrong. Ukraine had to renounce nuclear weapons, that was one of 3 conditions Russia put for Ukraine's independence. Unless it renounced nuclear weapons, they would not have got independence. It had nothing with any 'suggestion from the west'.
The other conditions were that Ukraine would be neutral and not join any military alliance against Russia. And thirdly they would lease Sevastopol port in the Crimea as it was the HQ of the Russian Black Sea fleet. Ukraine, under the wicked machinations of two of the signatories of Budapest, tried to join NATO which goes against the conditions of its independence. For unilaterally flouting the terms of its independence agreement with Russia, Russia took action to terminate Ukraine.
'This agreement effectively left Ukraine vulnerable against Russian aggression. '
That is a falsehood. Signing the Budapest Memorandum has not led to Ukraine's end as a state. Ukraine's end came because it reneged on the commitment to neutrality it made to Russia. It sought to join NATO allowing the US to threaten Russia. Russia had to take back Crimea as otherwise, the US Seventh Fleet would be sailing from there, and Russia would be cut out from the Black Sea.
Educate yourself before commenting on things you don't know. The west brought Ukraine's end, not due to Budapest, but due to flouting the terms of Ukraine's independence. That is the fault of the Ukranians and the west.
