Aid should never go through the governments in the countries you’re helping. It should go directly to the people. Or else shit like this will happen 100% of the time.
Wow. Why cant they just close everything and say its lukashenka and erdogans humanitarian problem. Why is everything always a eu proble or a eu responsability.

**Is Lukashenka playing on the EU’s nose? He makes propaganda using funds from Brussels**
The European Commission provides EU money to help migrants in Belarus through a humanitarian organisation controlled by Alexander Lukashenka’s regime, which uses this support for propaganda purposes, EU sources inform PAP. Poland urges Brussels to transfer food and medicine to Belarus, not money.
**In recent weeks, the European Commission has become involved in humanitarian support for migrants in Belarus.**
**It does it through the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies**
**But national Red Cross committees also receive assistance. And in the case of Belarus, such a committee is fully controlled by Lukashenka**
There are many organizations that operate under the banner of the Red Cross. The oldest is the International Committee of the Red Cross, which was founded in 1863 and is based in Geneva. During World War I, this organization called for the formation of national Red Cross committees. The third format is the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, which includes national committees.
National Red Cross committees are different, however. **While in democratic countries they are independent and deal with strictly humanitarian activities, in the case of authoritarian countries or regimes they are 100 percent controlled by the authorities.** An example of this is the Belarusian Red Cross, which is under complete control of the authorities in Minsk.
The Polish Press Agency reports that in recent weeks, the European Commission has several times transferred EU funds to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, through which the money was channelled to the Belarusian Red Cross, which is controlled by Lukashenko. **The last tranche amounted to 200,000 euros.**
Some EU countries, including Poland and Lithuania, have been warning that in a situation where the Belarusian regime is organizing people smuggling, the EU should not transfer money to the organization controlled by Minsk.
The Polish ambassador wants to raise the issue once again in talks with the EC and the EU27 this week. – The matter is shocking. Nobody doubts the European Commission’s good intentions, **but we cannot accept that the regime in Minsk uses EU money for propaganda purposes** – he points out.
By the time of the dispatch, the Polish Press Agency had not received any comment from the European Commission on the matter nor any information on the funds which were transferred to the Belarusian organization.
Lukashenka arrived on Friday at the logistics center in Bruzgi near the border crossing with Poland, where Belarusian authorities have temporarily deployed more than 2,000 migrants. This was reported by Belarusian state media.
– **I would like to address the German people** (…) Please, take these people with you. Two **thousand people is not a big problem for Germany and Chancellor Merkel has accepted it, but Poles are blocking everything,**” Lukashenko said at the border crossing in Bruzgi, as quoted by “Rzeczpospolita”.
– **I would also like to address the Polish nation, friendly and hard-working, with which we have always been good neighbors.** And I am addressing the Polish nation not because they have no authorities, because the Polish authorities have gone mad and have lost touch with reality (…) They want to divert attention from internal problems at the cost of these unfortunate people. Dear Poles, speak to your politicians – he said. – I firmly request, we do not need a clash, and even less a war. Let them pass to Germany, they are not coming to us and they are not coming to Poland. Let them through and the problem will be solved,” Lukashenko said.
The West accuses Belarus of artificially creating a crisis by providing migrants with visas in retaliation for sanctions imposed on Minsk. The Belarusian authorities reject these accusations. The Polish side reports constant attempts to illegally cross the border, as well as attempts to force the border.
Why tf is EU or any other organization is involved in this ? Some *adults* came to another country “as tourists”. Turned out they were planning to commit illegal actionts. Why bother ? It was their choice so why bother. Let Belarus and their home countries handle it.
Where does he get EU funds from…?
The right way to deal with this, is putting sanctions on Red Cross organizations that are willing dupes of the KGB and OMON and GRU and FSB.
No access to banking, cryptocurrencies, tokens, or any for of stock brokerage or private equity funds. And no access to real estate.

Also, apparently Lukashenka uses YouTube ads to spread propaganda amongst the Polish nation;
