He said the Ukrainian Russian border, which last time I checked we haven't give Ukraine any nuclear weapons.

Yeah but I assumed he meant that this will happen when Ukraine joins NATO which would mean that today NATO holds nuclear weapons in Poland and Baltic countries. It doesn't because his argument is stupid.

Not every NATO country gets nukes. Jesus do some research. Only the UK has strategic weapons, which are domestically produced.

The United States has about 100 tactical B61 nuclear bombs deployed in Europe. These bombs are stored in hardened aircraft shelters at eight bases in six NATO countries: Belgium, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Turkey, United Kingdom.
