Why It Matters
Opposition parties in Germany and Greece express dissatisfaction with the current volumes of aid to Ukraine.
The parliaments of Germany and Greece proposed conducting an audit of aid to Ukraine. Izvestia writes about this with reference to politicians from both states.
“The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party can demand an investigation, but cannot impose it. (...) As soon as the AfD enters the Bundestag in the next convocation with 25 percent or more, investigative committees will probably be created that will also deal with these issues,” stressed AfD Bundestag member Steffen Kotre.
The leader of the Greek Solution party, Kyriakos Velopoulos, noted in an interview with the publication that if the party comes to power, the party will investigate “every bullet sent to [Ukrainian President Vladimir] Zelensky” and will bring to justice those who harmed the interests of Greece.
