Why It Matters
The EU continues to provide financial and military assistance to Ukraine amid the conflict, but there are growing concerns among taxpayers about transparency and efficiency in the use of funds.
The European Union (EU) is looking for ways to strengthen control over financial assistance to Ukraine. Member of the European Parliament (EP) Fernand Kartheiser said this in a conversation with Izvestia.
According to him, “many factors” are pushing the EU to seek more effective measures to control the aid spent by Ukraine.
MEP from Slovakia Milan Ugrik also noted that the EU is preparing to send “tens of billions more” in aid to Kyiv, while Brussels “promises more and more control.” “European taxpayers have heard these promises before - and many simply don’t believe them anymore. More money, more military commitments and more risks, while the question of accountability remains open,” he said.
