Zelenskyy Wants $5 Billion a Month Just to Pay Personnel

The Group of Seven (G7) vows to provide support to Ukraine in all possible forms “for as long as it takes,” according to a draft communique of its ongoing summit, seen by Bloomberg.

Group of 7, June 26, 2022

The three-day meeting of the G7 leaders began on Sunday in Bavaria, Germany, with the Ukrainian conflict dominating the agenda.

“We will continue to provide financial, humanitarian, military, and diplomatic support and stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes,” reads the draft of the leaders’ statement.

Ukraine is bleeding mostly US money that we have to borrow or print. At the same time, the US and Europe are in desperate straits over fuel and funds.

Zelenskyy is now calling for $5 billion dollars a month to pay his bureaucrats. That’s just for office personnel. That’s in addition to the $100 billion US and EU funds to keep the doomed military going.

This isn’t sustainable.

It’s Unsustainable

Ukraine has lost its ports and vast areas of land, leaving it a rump nation. They have zero chance of regaining territory.

It’s seriously harming the US dollar. We’re subsidizing a foreign government while we have sky-high inflation.

The people of Ukraine are forced to suffer a horrific tragedy and Zelenskyy won’t negotiate with Russia.

Americans don’t realize what is going on over there because of disinformation spread by people like secretary of state Blinken. Russia has overrun about a third of the country.

Blinken’s reasoning in the clip below isn’t accurate:

Hollywood’s Taken Up the Cause 

NBC says it’s airing a star-studded, prime-time special to raise money for Ukraine with the aim of “spreading awareness through the power of entertainment.”

The hourlong benefit, “Ukraine: Answering the Call,” will air on Sunday at 7 p.m., the network announced Monday.

Who is answering the call for Americans who are hurting?

The special will include remarks from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, as well as appearances by celebrity chef José Andrés and musicians and actors, including Kristen Bell, Alicia Keys, Brad Paisley, Julianne Moore, Rosie Perez, Jon Batiste, Brandi Carlile, Brian Cox, Vera Farmiga, Jeff Daniels, Lena Headey, and Simu Liu, NBC said.

A group of Broadway performers will also come together to sing “What the World Needs Now Is Love.”

Let them do that, but the government needs to look at the endless financing.

As long as the Leftists in Europe/NATO/USA believe they can drain the American economy some more, they will willingly spend OUR money to do so. I’d like to know how much of the 100 *illions of dollars are coming from the USA v all the rest?

what a total crap posting this is. The author is a Russia sympathizer, “Ukraine has zero chance of regaining territory”, my foot. The Russian army is incompetent, most of their generals are now dead, Russia is running out of tanks and munitions and the Russian people are starting to revolt against all the soldier deaths. Meanwhile, all of NATO is… Read more »

You’re an idiot believing in Biden’s propaganda. The US government and media has been lying to you for years and years but you still believe what they say? How’s the gas prices and inflation getting to you? Is all that Putin’s fault? I didn’t realize that Putin can control our country’s economy? How pathetic we are that Russia can control… Read more »

Ukraine is becoming a money pit for the US. We need to stop throwing $$$ at it. Let Ukraine’s neighbors foot the bill. We have enough problems here.

Given that the whole military budget of Ukraine prior to the war was about $3B a YEAR, the idea of a budget of $5B a month for personnel alone seems overblown. In terms of providing larger sums than that though for equipment – we are already in the war support business in Ukraine. Pressing him to negotiate is absurd given… Read more »

Ukraine lost the war with Russia already and the US politician are just milking the US taxpayers. How pathetic we are that we’re suffering here in the US for a foreign war we’re not even INVOLVED?
