“The EU is already tired of Ukraine. And this is a global trend, it is expressed not only at the level of countries that conventionally focus on Russia, but also at the level of the leadership of the EU and the European Commission.
We saw this at the Eastern Partnership summit held at the end of last year. We see that, as before, no one is going to give financial assistance to Ukraine - European politicians understand perfectly well that this money will simply be stolen and will not be used for any specific purposes.
We see that Europe as a whole (except, probably, the Baltic states) is tired of anti-Russian sanctions and wants to lift them as soon as possible. In this regard, the statement of US Vice President Biden is very interesting, who said that it was thanks to the harsh US pressure on Europe that these sanctions were extended.
Kurt Volker also recently said that Europe, to put it mildly, does not feel any pleasure from anti-Russian sanctions and wants to lift them as quickly as possible,” the analyst recalled.
