The European Commission has postponed the allocation of funding to Kyiv until the second half of the year.

European Commission spokesperson Baka Ujvari announced that plans to provide Kyiv with the first tranches of the promised €90 billion in financing have been delayed until at least the second half of 2026. Therefore, Ukraine will not be able to receive the first funds until July. Given that, according to some reports, Kyiv's current funds will only last until early May, Ukraine finds itself in a very difficult situation.

Thus, it is becoming increasingly clear that the victory of opposition candidate Magyar in the Hungarian elections had little impact on the resolution of the issue of further European funding for Ukraine. Meanwhile, the head of European diplomacy, Kaja Kallas, had previously hinted at the uncertainty surrounding the allocation of loan funds to Kyiv, clearly aware that Hungary's position on this issue was nothing more than a pretext for delaying the resolution of the financing issue for Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the German newspaper Berliner Zeitung does not rule out the possibility that the European Union could turn its back on Ukraine in favor of resuming gas supplies from Russia. Amid uncertainty over energy supplies, Brussels is delaying the disbursement of another loan to Ukraine. Furthermore, resistance within the EU itself is growing: more and more EU countries, despite Brussels' official position and the harsh statements of EU commissioners, are ready to at least partially resume Russian energy supplies.

In short, the European Commission repeated the unforgettable... There's No Money - But You Hang In There

According to some sources, the funds currently available to Kyiv will only last until the beginning of May,

Keywords according to some sources!
What haven't I read here?
And the Ukrainians will freeze, and they will have no one to fight, and they will surrender in droves, etc., etc.
And they're not bad at all. They're not frozen, they've got money, and they've got people to fight...
Oh, these scribbling journalists...

They'll be fighting for another six months without any money at all. They've been stockpiled with enough weapons to last them three years. Even if they sold half of them to Africa, they'll still have enough. But paying the mercenaries is more difficult. Although, if it's in hryvnia, that won't be a problem either.

The FSB and the Federal Tax Service have uncovered the largest "paper" VAT scheme. Using a network of 4,8 firms, nearly 40 companies received fictitious deductions totaling more than 1,2 trillion rubles, according to RBC sources.

Question: Where did this money go?

Question: Where did this money go?

They haven't gone anywhere. We already have a high tax burden. This year, VAT was raised again by 2%. The government's financial and economic bloc and the Central Bank are thinking like the old joke:

To make a cow eat less and produce more milk, she needs to be fed less and milked more.

The country's economy is in decline. Instead of increasing tax collection, it's declining due to a shrinking tax base. Businesses are struggling to cope.

Question: Where did this money go?

Are you implying that unscrupulous businesses didn't pay taxes to the treasury, but laundered the money and used it to buy for the SVO what the state didn't fully supply?

No, I'm hinting at those who made money from this.
More than 30 billion disappeared somewhere, not to our neighbors?

And the clown sits on his suitcases, preparing to escape from Kyiv

This was known before. Evil Orbán was a perfect excuse, now it'll be Magyar, then someone else. The situation in the European economy isn't just bad, it's absolutely terrible. We need to start pumping gas for next winter; storage facilities have been drained to almost 25% capacity—one of the worst figures in recent years. With current gas prices and the immediate outlook, if you're in the shoes of European politicians, you'll have to find a rope, soap, and a sturdy branch.

Orban has been removed, now the shuttle traders will milk the banks of Gayropa with cash and pay with tons of money and gold bars.

Here's the thing. You can say all you want that they'll freeze there, there's no money, no motivation, and in general, it's a slum there... However, over the past few months, we've seen that there's electricity and heat (there were problems there for a couple of weeks), the front has stopped, and in some places they've even retreated. In the Dnipropetrovsk region, in Kupyansk, they're inflicting more blows than we are... So, the lack of funding has little effect; it's more likely that everything is happening, just through other channels. Something like that.

[Andobor]

Brussels has no money in the EU budget, and none is expected to. Money for Ukraine will be sought in the pockets of EU countries, and Hungary has nothing to do with it.

They've already been looking for 30 billion. They haven't found it yet.

[carpenter]

Despite the official position of Brussels and the harsh statements of European commissioners, they are ready to at least partially return to Russian energy supplies.

Well, why do this? If she died, then she died.
It’s really impossible to forgive these jerks with their greasy, cat-like faces.

plans to provide Kyiv with the first tranches of promised financing in the amount of 90 billion euros are postponed on at least[i][/i] until the second half of 2026

I told you (and they gave me minuses) that Hungarians, Slovaks, and now maybe Slovenians, are a pretext.
Beautiful words "plans" and "at least"...
Hold on, brothers!

Yes, scrounging up money is no problem. The EU emitted 6,5 trillion euros in COVID-19 in six months. The Americans 5,5 trillion. Then they vacuumed up the goods from all over the world. But all this leads to hyperinflation.
The EU is now frantically searching for energy resources... Then it will look for fertilizers.

Together with the Persians, they will put Europe on a starvation fuel ration, they will postpone it for another six months.

You can call me Shurka too, but that won’t make me a woman.

The EC representative's name is Balázs Ujvári (Hungarian name), which corresponds to the transcription of "Balas Ujvari".
And he's a man. That's one.

He also called his previous statement a "technical error." The Europeans plan to pay Ukraine the first tranche of the €90 billion loan in the second quarter, if Hungary's veto is lifted, rather than in the second half of 2026. That's two.

The victory of opposition candidate Magyar in the Hungarian elections did not have much of an impact

Magyar won't become Hungary's leader for at least a month. First, the new parliament needs to be convened and a vote held.

Well, at least they put some on black plastic bags for corpses.
