The Council of the European Union, which represent the bloc’s 27 individual member states, has agreed to send €1 billion ($1 billion) in financial aid to Ukraine as Russia’s invasion intensifies.
It will be provided in the form of loans, building on an initial €1.2 billion loan package from February.
“This will give Ukraine the necessary funds to cover urgent needs and ensure the operation of critical infrastructure,” said Zbynek Stanjura, finance minister of the Czech Republic, which currently holds the EU’s rotating presidency.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal also confirmed the receipt of a $1.7 billion nonrefundable grant from the United States.
The money coming from the US Agency for International Development, the Treasury Department and the World Bank will be used to pay the health care workers’ salaries and provide other essential services.
Yeah, send more money to Ukraine over a US-caused war.
Meanwhile, we never sent money or weapons to the victims of American illegal wars of aggression – in fact, we participated on the side of the Americans and people will freeze in winter as our economy goes down the toilet.
But hey, maybe if we censor dissent even more heavily and ban all foreign news except for those of our “American partners” we can create an alternative reality where all the propaganda is true and our troubles will magically go away.
We just have to firmly believe we are the good guys doing the morally right thing. After all, it’s the price of “freedom and democracy”. lol Yeah, we truly need to give up our own future in the service of the American empire so we can help out the poorest and most corrupt country of Europe filled with literal Nazis and led by a US-controlled government… oh wait, we can just yell “that’s just Russian propaganda!” really loud and mass downvote and censor anyone who disagrees because they are a “paid Kremlin shill bot” and it will magically turn into a free and democratic nation caring about human rights and sharing our values.
Edit: And the downvotes are already coming. 🙂
Keep destroying our countries for your American masters, traitors.
Good, we’re doing or Ukraine what we should have done for Poland or Czechoslovakia.
Meanwhile ~20% of our savings have been wiped out in a year due to inflation and the Euro crashing.
Put the EU first.
How much money have we sent to Yemen? How much to Palestine?
Yet we’ll risk our own economies for some American imperialism?
