Zelensky wants a bite out of your GDP.
After more than 3 years having his regime be the focus of the Globalist establishment, Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky now sees the world’s attention turning to the dangerous escalation in the Middle East – and is afraid funds for his war effort will become even harder to come by than they’ve already become.
So, Zelensky came up with a ‘brilliant’ idea: he is calling on Ukraine’s Western partners to allocate 0.25% of their GDP to help Kiev ramp up weapons production.
He also said Ukraine will start exporting weapon production technologies.
Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers are AWOL, and the morale has tanked all along the frontline.
Reuters reported:
“In remarks released for publication by his office on Saturday, Zelensky said Ukraine was in talks with Denmark, Norway, Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Lithuania to launch joint weapon production.
‘Ukraine is part of Europe’s security and we want 0.25% of the GDP of a particular partner country to be allocated for our defense industry and domestic production,” Zelensky said’.”
The lack of support from US’ Donald J. Trump is patent, so Zelensky will need more from the Europeans.
The Ukrainian defenses are out-manned, out-equipped and out-maneuvered by the Russian forces, and they are totally reliant on outside help to maintain some fighting capabilities.
“This year Kiev had secured $43 billion to finance its domestic weapon production, Zelensky said.”
Zelensky and Denmark’s Mette on a Kiev cemetery: his losses are astronomical, but he wants to keep fighting.
Ukraine is only able to produce 40% of its defense equipment domestically, and it’s planning to launch joint weapon production outside of the country.
“’We have launched a program ‘Build with Ukraine’ and in summer we will sign relevant agreements to start exporting our technologies abroad in the format of opening production lines in European countries’, Zelensky said.”
