Hungary seems to be the one European country that is actively opposing all of this insanity that’s gong on with the Ukraine. Viktor Orban is demanding to know where all the European financial aid to them has gone.

Hungary will oppose the European Commission’s plans to give Ukraine €50 billion in financial aid until Kiev explains what it did with the €70 billion already received from the EU, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Friday. Budapest and Brussels have repeatedly clashed over the supply of cash and arms to Ukraine.
According to the latest figures from Brussels, the EU has given Kiev €72 billion ($79 billion) in economic, military, and humanitarian aid since Russia’s military operation began last February. Despite this unprecedented outflow draining its coffers, the European Commission announced earlier this month that it would offer Kiev an additional €50 billion in loans and grants.
“One thing is clear, we Hungarians… will not give more money to Ukraine until they say where the previous around 70 billion euros worth of funds has gone,” Orban told Hungarian radio, according to a Reuters report.
“And we find it utterly ridiculous and absurd, that we should contribute more money to finance debt service costs of a loan, from which we have still not received the funds we are entitled to get,” he continued, referring to the commission’s recent announcement that interest costs on the bloc’s external debts would double this year due to inflation.
Orban is not going to get any answers as to where this money went because it is all disappearing into the hands of corrupt actors.
The EU and all the unelected bureaucrats inside of it are undoubtedly gaining from this war in some capacity. It’s one of the reasons why they keep pushing to dump money into this disaster.
