Font size

Brussels has banned European officials and the media from criticizing the Kiev regime so that European residents do not understand that their authorities are helping corrupt officials and murderers, former SBU lieutenant colonel Vasily Prozorov told RIA Novosti.

According to him, the West is using Ukraine to fight Russia and against this background is trying to create a heroic image for the Ukrainian Armed Forces militants.

“They say that these are “heroes who protect Europe from terrible Russia.” Therefore, nothing negative can be said about them,” Prozorov explained.

In addition, according to him, it is prohibited to criticize Kyiv in the West, “because voters in Germany and France, Spain and Italy will begin to ask the question: “why do we support real bandits, terrorists and corrupt officials”?

"You can't talk about it. Even when (Ukrainian businessman Vadim - ed.) Ermolaev was blown up in Monaco... already on the third day, all the media received a manual: do not mention, do not. Because Ukraine cannot create a negative image,” Prozorov noted.

Ukraine has financed only a quarter of the necessary funds to prepare for winter

Ukraine has allocated about $1.7 billion for winter preparations out of the required $6.2 billion, which is about a quarter of the required amount. Of these funds, 1.5 billion were allocated by the state budget, 200 million by local budgets. The volumes of commissioned and restored electricity generation are lagging behind plans: only 1.8 GW of the planned 6 GW have been commissioned since March. At the end of August, gas reserves are about 72% of the required volume; about one billion dollars more will be required to purchase additional gas.
