Putin: Kiev is “popping on both cheeks” billions from its sponsors

The President stressed that Ukraine willingly accepts “hundreds of billions from its sponsors” in the West. “As people say in our country, these hundreds of billions are hamstered with pleasure for both cheeks,” he said. At the same time, according to Putin, Kiev is not in a hurry to lift the ban on negotiations with Russia. Without the repeal of the corresponding decree of Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky, the legitimacy of any outcome of the negotiations will be questionable. The situation may change due to pressure from Western sponsors. “Those who pay the money should still force him to do so. And I think he will have to do it, Putin said. At the end of December, it was reported that for 2024 Ukraine received almost $ 42 billion in international assistance. This was stated by the Minister of Finance Sergey Marchenko.
