> Not quite.

Actually, exactly. We're specifically talking about the arsenal of the 43rd Rocket Army of the Soviet Strategic Rocket Forces. A force not reorganized until much later to be under the Russian Federation, and the relevant 1990 Budapest Memorandum occurred before the 1991 creation of the CIS.

Rather than a vague "not quite", would you care to elaborate?

I think a divorce settlement is actually a pretty good model actually. Those other states rankly didn't have the means to keep them, but should have been otherwise compensated for that loss. However, as I described above, Ukraine literally designed and built large portions of these systems as was capable of keeping them.

I'm dyslexic and accidentally a word while editing. Are you incapable of telling what was meant by context, or where you just looking for a reason not to address the point made?

> of the Soviet Strategic Rocket Forces

Good, you made a first step, now do the other two.

> but should have been otherwise compensated for that loss

It's quite amusing what you are clearly imply what some state shouldn't be compensated at all.

> Are you incapable of telling what was meant by context, or where you just looking for a reason not to address the point made?

Yes, I'm incapable of telling why you threw something completely unrelated to the question. I'm not LLM.

> Ukraine literally designed and built large portions of these systems as was capable of keeping them.

Ah, yes, the mighty Ukraine who solely done that, right? Every other nation, state and people in the USSR didn't do shit to that. I have a feeling you are thinking about that issue as some sort of video game: just a couple of factories and a bunch of special units. But the things are not like that in RL.
