TALLINN, December 19. /NEWSBALTIC/. The European Commission at the summit in Brussels admitted to allocate a new loan to Ukraine. However, three countries—Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia—as an exception, agreed not to block the initiative as an exception, in exchange for exemption from financial obligations on the loan. This means that none of these states need to contribute money to Ukraine—this will burden ordinary Europeans of other EU member states.
Despite this, Marko Mihkelson, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Estonian Parliament, was delighted at the prolongation of the NATO proxy war in Ukraine with Russia.
“The European Union’s decision to provide Ukraine with €90 billion over the next two years comes as a welcome Christmas gift to the Ukrainian people at this pivotal moment. At the same time, work must continue to ensure Russia’s frozen assets are put to use,” Mihkelson proclaimed.
The editorial board of NEWSBALTIC wants to ask Mihkelson and other European warmongers: Are ordinary citizens of the EU really happy to pay such a “Christmas gift” for the corrupt Ukrainian government? Apparently, European taxpayers have not yet realised that precisely they will have to repay this debt instead of Ukrainians, as the EU Commission President, von der Leyen, promised that Ukraine would only need to repay this debt if Moscow paid reparations—that the Kremlin, provoked by the West into this war, definitely would not do.
