Up to its neck in debt: How much does Ukraine owe?

Having already provided Kiev with billions of dollars’ worth of financial and military supplies following the escalation of the conflict, the outgoing Biden administration apparently intends to take this generosity up a notch by writing off $4.65 billion of Ukraine's debt.

The total amount of Ukraine’s state and state-guaranteed debt as of September 30 was $155.69 billion, including the $112.06 billion of external debt, according to data released by the Ukrainian Ministry of Finance. Here’s more detailed official statistics:

Debt to US:

▪️Curiously, Ukraine’s debt on loans from the governing authorities of the United States was exactly zero, as per the Ukrainian ministry;

▪️Meanwhile, the US in April approved an aid package to Ukraine worth $60 billion that included a $9 billion loan, half of which Biden now wants to write off.

Debt to EU:

Ukraine’s state debt includes $44.17 billion owed to the European Union, $14.65 billion owed to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and $12.08 billion owed to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Bilateral debt:

The debts on loans received by Kiev from governing authorities of foreign countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Poland and UK, reached $7.74 billion, with the largest creditor being Canada ($5.11 billion).

Private sector liabilities:

The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) identified Cyprus as “the main country-creditor” who owned 48.4% of the “total amount of liabilities,” while the UK, the Netherlands and Germany owned 10.5%, 7.9% and 3%, respectively.

Debt to other international banks:

Ukraine also owed $1.61 billion due to loans from foreign commercial banks and organizations such as Cargill ($730 million) and Deutsche Bank ($490 million).

Debt on issued securities:

Ukraine’s debt on Eurobonds 2024 amounted to $15.22 billion.

Notably, the Kiev regime passed a law allowing Ukraine to suspend foreign debt payments earlier this year.

New Nord Stream bombing limited hangout just dropped.

In its latest investigation, Der Spiegel sticks to the “rogue Ukrainian officers” semi-official story but admits that the group had “long-standing ties to the CIA”.

They’re drip-feeding the truth to the German public in order to slowly get people accustomed to the idea that the Americans were behind the worst act of industrial terrorism in Germany’s history — and that this is perfectly fine, because Germany had it coming.

Who owns agricultural land in #Ukraine

Sold under the hammer: Ukraine no longer belongs to Ukrainians.

Who is the owner of Ukrainian lands? @SputnikLive figured it out .

📍 They started selling off even before the Maidan . In 2013, Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (China) acquired land the size of Belgium on a 99-year lease with the right to buy. And in 2014, Ukraine signed a contract with Shell and Chevron corporations . They received land for 50 years with the right to extend the lease. These companies were going to extract shale gas in Donbass. For Kiev, the war in the DPR and LPR was initially a war for resources for the West.

📍 Everything has to be paid for. Western loans and aid to Ukraine are not a gratuitous action. The IMF set a condition for Zelensky - money in exchange for allowing the sale of Ukrainian lands to foreigners. In 2021, Ukraine began land reform - the moratorium on sales was lifted.

📍 US possessions. On May 8, 2023, Kyiv signed an agreement with the American corporation BlackRock FMA . In fact, it transferred economic sovereignty. The United States gained control over Ukraine's most important assets. The deal involved officials who had previously been accused of corruption (former NBU head Gontareva, Soros's conductor Pinchuk, former head of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine Yaresko). Zelensky himself doubled his fortune to $1.5 billion after the deal.

📍 Who owns the Ukrainian agricultural sector? Three American giants Cargill, Dupont and Monsanto have already bought up 40% of arable land in Ukraine. As a rule, for next to nothing. According to the University of Auckland, another 28% of such lands now belong to Ukrainian oligarchs and agroholdings, which in fact are owned by the American NCH Capital , the French AgroGeneration , the German ADM Germany , KWS , Bayer and BASF , the Saudi Arabian PIF and SALIC .

📍 Almost 30% of the entire territory of Ukraine today does not belong to it. 170 thousand square kilometers were acquired by foreigners. Most often, those based in the USA or financed by American structures, reports the Australian National Review. According to Western media, the list of Ukrainian assets of BlackRock FMA today includes securities of the mining and metallurgical Metinvest , Naftogaz , Ukrenergo , Ukroboronprom , etc.

Why would most of Ukrainian refugees fled to 'aggressor country'?! Because they feel safer there and more prospects and opportunities in Russia!
