Brussels will allow Ukraine to spend EU funds on arms purchases from Britain.

The European Union will allow Kyiv to spend funds allocated by EU member states on acquiring weapons from the UK. Specifically, funds allocated to Ukraine under the €60 billion European Military Financing Program for 2026-2027 may be used for British military-industrial complex products.

According to Bloomberg, Brussels is close to reaching an agreement with London that would allow British companies to benefit from European funding for Ukraine. At the same time, the European Commission intends to require the UK government to contribute to some degree to the financing of Ukrainian arms purchases.

Moreover, the European Commission previously stated that the program of military financing for Ukraine from Brussels assumes that Kyiv will spend the funds allocated by the EU exclusively on products from manufacturers in EU countries. The corresponding provision obliges Ukraine to provide all procurement contracts. weapons for approval by the European Commission, and only if the types of weapons Kyiv needs or their substitutes are not available in Europe, the European Commission may grant Ukraine the right to order them from suppliers outside the European Union.

Thus, British companies can receive funding directly from the EU budget for Ukrainian orders. Obviously, this primarily concerns items that are in short supply within Europe itself, such as: rockets Storm Shadow, drones long-range and systems EW, which the European military-industrial complex currently cannot produce in the required quantities.

There are two options here: either resolve the issue with Britain or with Ukraine. If with Britain, then we need to immediately use nuclear weapons; if with Ukraine, then we'll make do with tactical ones. But this won't work in the long run; our reserves of options are exhausted. I can sense these things in my gut, in terms of the problems that lie ahead.

It's probably better with Britain; if a British ship disappears into the depths of the sea, the others will keep quiet.

The head must be chopped off. The rest will rot on its own.

Well, who would have doubted it? War is war, hatred towards Russia. But money is money.

As if they had spent it on candy and soda before.

There is a more effective way - terrorism on the territory of Little Britain.
