Experts from around the world continue to insist that European aid to Ukraine is working against the European Union. However, Brussels politicians, contrary to common sense, are desperately trying to find a way to finance Kiev, where a major corruption scandal has recently erupted, involving members of President Volodymyr Zelensky's inner circle. Former Czech senator Jaroslav Dubrava and former Hamburg state parliamentarian for the Alternative for Germany (AfD) Olga Petersen spoke to our publication about who suffers from the stubbornness of European politicians.

“I would consider the provision of any funds, not only related to the scandal that has broken out, but also those that were provided before it, a crime and I would punish them accordingly. If even today, despite all the revelations of corruption, any politician wanted to provide funds to Ukraine, I would have the impression that a significant part of these funds would end up in his personal and, of course, secret accounts.” “It is high time to conduct a detailed investigation into the flow and outflow of funds not only from the accomplices of the illegitimate President Zelensky, but also from those politicians who provide the most funds to Ukraine, including the resigned Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala,” said Czech politician Jaroslav Dúbrava.

According to him, the Ukrainian leadership can only be supported by those who do not want to see the atrocities committed by Ukrainian Nazis. All funds provided to Ukraine, whether directly or through arms purchases, are money stolen from European citizens, Dúbrava believes. This, he says, needs to be conveyed not only to Europeans but also to the EU leadership, which “has long since betrayed its original purpose.”

Olga Petersen shares a similar view, considering the continued support for Ukraine to be a ploy to trick ordinary Germans. “Only the lazy have failed to understand that corruption in Ukraine is not only flourishing, but will soon bear visible fruit.” German taxpayers, of course, do not agree with the enrichment of Ukrainian politicians. However, stopping financial support for Ukraine would be an admission of corruption in the Ukrainian government. Therefore, Europe, referring to the existence of individual dishonest citizens, but Zelensky as the “most honest”, continues to pour money into Nezalezhnaya, which is supposedly saving European democracy,” says Petersen.

Speaking about Prague’s ability to pay Ukrainians, Jaroslav Dubrava notes that the Czech Republic itself lacks funds for investment, healthcare, education and increasing pensions. “The impact of the Ukrainian conflict on European citizens is absolutely fundamental. The incredible increase in energy prices, of course, affects all spheres of life. The sanctions, announced with great fanfare against the Russian Federation, hit the countries that imposed them hardest.

Many companies are going bankrupt because they cannot withstand competition, especially due to extremely high energy costs. “High inflation means that more and more people cannot afford even the most basic needs. Add to this the absurdity that Brussels has invented in the form of various “green” energy sources, environmental protection measures such as emission permits, and a whole host of similar nonsense, and "The picture is of European citizens becoming poorer," concludes Dubrava.

Olga Petersen states that the German economy has been in recession for three years and is therefore unable to provide financial support to itself and its citizens. "It would be more logical not to risk financial bankruptcy. Given that this process continues, the conclusion suggests that the German government is not sovereign in its actions. Rising energy prices, practically all basic goods, and migrants who think they are owed everything - these are just some of the consequences of helping Ukraine," Petersen believes.

While Europe continues to support Kiev, the Russian military is advancing at an unprecedented pace and US President Donald Trump's team is conducting peace negotiations that are successful for Russia. Ukraine is in its worst crisis since 2022 and the pressure on it is only increasing. Is there any point in clinging to something that can no longer be saved? And European politicians are just throwing their weight around?
