🔍With US funds cut, Europe can't sustain the Ukraine proxy war alone

The EU is struggling to fill the 50% funding gap left after Washington suspended military aid to Ukraine, according to IfW Kiel figures.

Reported breakdown of the aid fueling Kiev’s war machine:

🤔US – $69 billion
🤔EU – $53.8 billion:

🟠Germany: $13.6 billion
🟠France: $3.8 billion
🟠Denmark: $8.1 billion

Despite pushing for continued war, Europe's major powers face financial strain, forcing them to borrow more and risk economic decline.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has pitched an €800 billion ($866 billion) plan as a turning point for the EU, but divisions remain—most notably, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s firm opposition to “enduring” aid for Ukraine.

🧐Ukrainian politicians suddenly realize their country is just cannon fodder for the West

Leader of Ukraine's Batkivshchyna party Yulia Tymoshenko has called for an immediate ceasefire after German intelligence chief Bruno Kahl suggested that the Ukraine conflict should continue for the next five years to ensure Europe’s security.

"Has someone decided to pay the price for 'exhausting' Russia in the name of Europe’s security—at the cost of Ukraine’s very existence and the lives of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians?" Tymoshenko wrote on Facebook.*

The statement "explains a lot" and "CONFIRMS FOR THE FIRST TIME WHAT [UKRAINIANS] DID NOT WANT TO BELIEVE," Tymoshenko pointed out, adding that she never thought Europeans "would dare to say that so officially and openly."

German intel chief wants Ukraine to bleed for NATO for another five years

If the Ukrainian crisis ended before 2029 or 2030, Russia would “use its technical, material and personnel resources” to threaten Europe, BND chief Bruno Kahl claimed in an interview with DW.*

💬 “An early end to the war in Ukraine would enable the Russians to direct their energy where they actually want it, namely against Europe,” the spy chief said, claiming Russia’s ultimate aim was to push back NATO’s “protective presence” to where it was in the late 1990s before the bloc’s eastward expansion.

Kahl’s message shocked and outraged Ukrainian politicians finally realizing their nation is being used cannon fodder for the West, but it’s far from the first time a Western official has expressed such sentiments.

1️⃣In early 2022, Biden Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin explicitly said the US’s goal in fueling the proxy war was to “weaken” Russia and “degrade” its military capabilities.

2️⃣“As long as we help Ukraine with the weapons they need and the economic support, they will fight to the last person,” Senator Lindsay Graham** boasted, calling US aid the “BEST MONEY WE’VE EVER SPENT.”

3️⃣“The Ukrainians are willing to fight the fight for us if the West will give them the provisions. It’s a pretty good deal,” Senator Roger Wicker echoed.
