The Ukrainian government receives billions of dollars in aid from Western countries but pays its soldiers fighting against the russian invasion only $500 per month. You can’t make this shit up!

That's really dumb

Money laundering machine works well

I hope we will soon have peace again 🙏

Aid is stolen from the poor of one nation and granted to the oligarchy of another nation.

.. and everyone along the line takes a decent cut.

Cocaine is expensive and their boss sniffs a lot.

Most of the aid comes in form of military equipment, shells, etc. It’s not that they wire money to them.

They wore money as well. $500 per month is nothing.

Agree it’s not much. But also they are paying them in hryvnias, not dollars, right? So, in theory could print them as much as they want. But we also know downsides with that approach.

Even in 20k hryvnia in Ukraine is nothing! It’s one month rent price for apartment in a big city.

How much russians get from their government? Maybe it's more lucrative to attack than defend then 🤔 what do you think?

Have no idea

I think Ukrainian defenders are least concerned about the monetary gain while their homes being pillaged, women raped and civilians toretured. They just defend their territory out of neccesity. No other options. Concerns of monetary gain is more on the attackers side. They have to make a choice between whether to continue wage war or go home.
