Hungary’s Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto on Thursday said the European Union should stop sending money to the Ukrainian government after corruption reports.
“There’s a war mafia, a corrupt system working in Ukraine, and then the European Commission president … instead of stopping the payments and demanding for immediate financial clearance, she wants to send another 100 billion to Ukraine. That is insane,” he told reporters in Brussels before a meeting with his European Union counterparts.
He added that his country would support U.S. President Donald Trump’s peace initiatives.
Brussels turns a blind eye to Ukraine’s corrupt war mafia while the @EU_Commission asks member states for another €100 billion. Instead of demanding financial clarity, they want to pour even more European taxpayer money into a system everyone knows is rotten. Scandalous. pic.twitter.com/YXJpyU7F7L
