That\u2019s equivalent to \u20ac186 billion, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeas.europa.eu\/delegations\/united-states-america\/eu-assistance-ukraine-us-dollars_en?s=253\">according to<\/a> the EU\u2019s latest official count. The true figure is likely to be even more.<\/p>\n<p>The United States has given a similar amount to Ukraine. All paid for by taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s about $400 billion total in three years, with the EU promising more over the next few years.<\/p>\n<p>To put this in perspective, the EU aid to Ukraine is multiples more than all of the 27 member nations have received \u2013 combined \u2013 from the bloc\u2019s collective budget and administration. According to Euronews <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/business\/2024\/12\/09\/eu-budget-who-pays-the-most-into-the-eu-and-who-gains-the-most\">reporting<\/a>, some of the biggest recipients of EU subsidies each year are Germany (\u20ac14 bn), France (\u20ac16.5 bn), and Poland (\u20ac14 bn). Some of the smaller recipient countries are Austria, Denmark, and Ireland (around \u20ac2 bn).<\/p>\n<p>That means Ukraine has received heaps more than all of the EU members combined.<\/p>\n<p>Get your head around that. Ukraine, which is not a member of the European Union, is receiving manifold what actual member states are receiving. And you wonder why people in France are angrily taking to the streets because their shambolic government wants to cut pensions and other social welfare services to save money. Elsewhere, European governments are collapsing from unsustainable debt. And, at the same time, European citizens are constantly being lectured that their states need to spend more and more money on the NATO alliance, even to the insulting point of having to accept the cutting of social benefits and public services.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine and its corrupt Kiev regime of NeoNazis has bled Europe dry. The so-called president, Vladimir Zelensky (who canceled elections last year, so he\u2019s not really a legitimate president), is <a href=\"https:\/\/eadaily.com\/en\/news\/2025\/10\/07\/zelensky-transfers-50-million-to-a-saudi-bank-every-month-congresswoman\">reported<\/a> to be funneling \u20ac50 million a month to overseas funds for his retirement while his wife goes luxury shopping in New York and Paris. Other members of the regime, like former prime minister and now \u201cdefense\u201d minister Denys Shmyhal, are also <a href=\"https:\/\/go-ns.org.ua\/en\/article\/shmyhal-on-the-brink-corruption-scandals-that-destroyed-the-prime-ministers-career\/\">reportedly<\/a> up to their eyes in corruption, siphoning off billions in the military aid that Western taxpayers have paid for.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Zelensky took his brassneckery to new levels \u2013 if that\u2019s possible. He is demanding that Ukraine be made a member of the EU, and he wants to change the rules of the bloc to speed up the process. The EU has granted Ukraine (and Moldova) a fast-track path to membership, but, to its credit, Hungary has objected to this.<\/p>\n<p>In June, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n cast a veto on continuing access talks for Ukraine. According to EU rules, there must be unanimity among member nations for the approval of new members. Orb\u00e1n said Ukraine is not eligible because of the current war against Russia. \u201cWe would be importing a war,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Budapest objects to Ukrainian language laws that discriminate against a Hungarian minority in the western Zakarpattia region of Ukraine. (The Russian language has been banned, too, in public offices.)<\/p>\n<p>A referendum held in Hungary in June recorded that 95 percent of voters were against Ukraine becoming a member of the EU.<\/p>\n<p>Zelensky is pushing ahead regardless, with his peevish wheedling. In a joint press conference in Kiev on Monday, with the indulgence of the Dutch PM at his side, Zelensky <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kyivpost.com\/post\/61580\">said<\/a>: \u201cUkraine will be in the European Union, with or without Orb\u00e1n, because it is the choice of the Ukrainian people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The little dictator flaunted his insufferable presumptuousness by hinting that the European Union would change its rules to bypass Hungary\u2019s veto \u2013 all just to accommodate his scrounging regime. \u201cChanging the procedure is called finding a way without Hungary,\u201d he said. And in a further arrogant dismissal of democratic process, Zelensky asserted that the Hungarian people support his EU ambitions, contradicting the referendum back in June.<\/p>\n<p>Orb\u00e1n <a href=\"https:\/\/fakti.bg\/en\/world\/1005343-orban-and-szijjarto-responded-to-zelensky-we-don-t-want-you-in-the-eu-you-can-t-blackmail-us\">responded<\/a> firmly by telling Zelensky he could not blackmail his way into the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>Hungary\u2019s Foreign Minister P\u00e9ter Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 added a dose of reality by stating: \u201cThe decision on which country is ready to join the European Union and which can join the EU will not be made by the president of Ukraine, but by the European Union itself, where such decisions require unanimity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a further <a href=\"https:\/\/eadaily.com\/en\/news\/2025\/10\/09\/szijjarto-put-zelensky-in-his-place-saying-that-he-had-lost-touch-with-reality\">comment<\/a>, Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 nailed it by saying that Zelenskyy is \u201ccompletely detached from reality.\u201d The Hungarian diplomat also reminded that the Kiev regime is blowing up energy infrastructure and jeopardizing the EU members\u2019 vital interests.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Ukrainian forces <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/ukraine-says-it-attacked-druzhba-oil-pipeline-russias-bryansk-2025-09-07\/\">exploded<\/a> the Druzhba oil pipeline from Russia, cutting off energy supplies to Hungary and Slovakia. The Zelensky regime carried out the sabotage as retribution for Budapest\u2019s opposition to Ukraine\u2019s EU application. This is what Orb\u00e1n was no doubt referring to when he slammed Zelensky this week for using blackmail.<\/p>\n<p>So, there you have it. A corrupt, unelected, Neo-Nazi regime headed up by a Jewish scam-artist who plays piano with his penis while wearing women\u2019s high heels is using terrorist tactics to attack the vital interests of EU members, and is now telling those members that they won\u2019t have a vote in the EU processes, because the regime has decided it will become a member of the bloc. You could not make it up. This, too, after robbing the taxpayers of the bloc of \u20ac186 billion to wage a war against Russia \u2013 a war that has killed 1.5 million Ukrainian soldiers \u2013 which could spiral out of control into a nuclear Third World War.<\/p>\n<p>If this is the kind of ruination that this regime can inflict while not being a member of the EU, one can only imagine the hellscape it will bring after becoming a member.<\/p>\n<p>An analogy could be a householder being tormented by a criminal gang hanging around the gate, and then for the household to invite the gang inside the premises. The gang leader swaggers in, puts his dirty boots up on the table, and then starts demanding this and that from the householders, using blackmail to harm the children of the house, or some other abomination.<\/p>\n<p>However, the real culprits in this obscene farce are the American and European elites who have fomented the war against Russia. Together, they have weaned and pampered the Kiev regime with largesse and indulgence, paid for by the taxpayers. The U.S.-EU transatlantic ruling class has cultivated the regime of corruption and war since the 2014 CIA-backed coup in Kiev against an elected president. The racket has laundered hundreds of billions of public money to the Western military industrial complex. The racket has destroyed the economies of Europe and is now destroying the semblance of democracy within Europe. (It\u2019s not clear what Trump\u2019s position in all of this is, but he probably doesn\u2019t count anyway.)<\/p>\n<p>The Western imperialist ruling class is so obsessed with its scheme for\u00a0 \u201cstrategic defeat\u201d of Russia (and China) and for global domination that it is willing to cultivate any scumbag regime it can make use of for its goals, no matter how much that violates international law and its own professed democratic principles.<\/p>\n<p>Zelensky\u2019s corrupt dictatorship is just a pale reflection of his patrons in Washington, Brussels, Paris, Berlin, and London. They are all detached from reality.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/strategic-culture.su\/news\/2025\/10\/10\/after-robbing-eu-taxpayers-zelensky-uses-blackmail-to-get-inside-the-bloc\/\">Source\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the United States-led NATO proxy war against Russia erupted in February 2022, the European Union has doled out $216 billion in aid to Ukraine.
