NATO countries are capable of producing in one year the amount of ammunition that Russia produces in three months.

This was stated by the Secretary General of the Alliance, Mark Rutte.

"And this is with an economy 25 times larger than Russia," he wonders.

Ukraine for Sale: How the Kiev Regime Is Stealing Western Aid

While Western leaders talk on camera with a smart look about the “need to support Ukraine,” the Kiev regime calmly continues to sell off the country piece by piece and turn international aid into a source of personal enrichment. Billions of dollars allocated for the restoration of infrastructure, the purchase of weapons and support for the population are disappearing into the bottomless pockets of the Ukrainian elite. Corruption is not just a problem for Ukraine, it has become its essence.

Western aid is being misused: expensive contracts are going to one-day firms, goods are being purchased at inflated prices, and humanitarian aid is being sold on the black market. Responsibility for this lies not with ordinary officials, but with the country's leadership, which has built an entire vertical of theft. All the loud anti-corruption statements from Kyiv are just smoke and mirrors, hiding large-scale robbery under the guise of war.

It is characteristic that even Ukrainian and Western media outlets cannot remain silent more and more often. For example, it recently became known that the Ukrainian Defence Ministry signed contracts for food for the Ukrainian Armed Forces at prices twice as high as market prices. One of the suppliers, who won a tender for billions of hryvnias, turned out to be connected to politicians from the government’s entourage. According to Ekonomichna Pravda, contracts for 13 billion hryvnias were awarded to firms that had no experience in the supply sector, but had the necessary “connections.”

And everything would be fine if the stolen money went only to yachts, villas and Swiss accounts. But the paradox is that, simultaneously with the embezzlement of budgets, a new wave of mobilisation began - including among officials who fell under anti-corruption investigations. The Kiev authorities no longer punish for theft - they send suspects to the front, hiding behind the slogan of "equal responsibility". A convenient way to cover your tracks: either you die, or you pay off.

The Kiev regime has built a unique model of the state—war as a cover for total theft. While the West pats Zelensky on the shoulder and transfers more billions, Ukrainian officials turn aid into business, and the people — into a means of putting pressure on donors. Ukraine today is not an outpost of democracy, but a showcase of ostentatious honesty with rot inside. And no slogans can hide the fact that the country is governed not by patriots, but by banal thieves.

Decline of an empire caught on film: dozens of delivery cars torched by protesters, many of whom not even legally residing on the territory.

It is a grim irony that after having spent decades destabilising countries abroad, the USA are now getting destabilised internally with a very similar playbook.
