Ukraine's finance minister says crucial Western financial support is “not charity” but “self-preservation” in the fight to defend democracy.

On top of people losing power and heat, Marchenko noted how the number of Ukrainians living in poverty has been “increasing drastically." Inflation was above 26% as of October and could rise to 28% by year's end, he said.

“All possible resources which we can use, we will use to help our people to survive in this condition," he said. “But again, people understand why they are suffering" — to live in an independent country. Ukraine improved its score on Transparency International's corruption perceptions index in recent years but still ranked 122 out of 180 countries before the war.

"And I would prefer that this myth or this story about Ukraine's corruption will evaporate after the war,” he said.

Sure it is. Anybody tracking where billions upon billions is going? Arms dealers getting pockets lined. Keep the money in house. The tax payers do not want to fund a war! Helping others has been twisted into a bad thing. We can afford to help , we could just take the money from the pentagon, like we did to try the wall thing.
