If people did this in the USA or Europe, the same thing would happen. So what exactly are we supporting besides a future war with Russia?

Petition to impose personal sanctions against allegedly corrupted president of Ukraine, his family, Ukrainian government. Some Ukrainian politics talk about treason yet there are no working legal mechanics for their talks to become actions within Ukraine itself. Hence the plea to US government by desperate Ukrainians.


You have a long way to go in your lesson on how the world really works.

Do you seriously think people in Ukraine gives damn what White house thinks? They got bigger problems to handle then what President of United States of America might be thinking about them.

Personally US would be better of if they would stop mingling with foreign countries internal affairs. Would also reduce amount of people hating US and terrorism. Would be peace act of century i think.

Ukrainian Government: You give $20 billion a year or we go Russia.

EU Taxpayers: Haha, aye jog on.

What's that word for someone who sells themselves to whomever offers the most cash?

That's why i won't sign the petition. Just because you can't do anything but insult a whole nation.

So basically, the Ukrainian government doesn't want to submit its full API?

humm so this thread is allowed to stay open but if i wanted to talk about socialism and stuff it would be locked (oh wait... maybe that is exactly what they are selling), is ccp biased or am I just stupid? I think not, I think your player base is probably more smarter than you imagine.

$20bill is sod all - Spain has had more than €400bill in "structural funding" since they joined the EU. "Structural funding" = cash grants for those wondering. They ought to be a damn sight more grateful IMHO.

The EU is headed by Barroso who is a Maoist (oh wait he says he isn't now) and can be basically summarised as spread the money around until we're all as poor as each other.

All very nice when you're a recipient of the cash, not so great when your country has been paying billions every year for 40+ years without ever being asked if this is OK in that time. Add in mass immigration - the city I live in grew by 34% in the last decade and NONE of that increase was due to indigenous births - and is it any wonder people get sick of it all?

So I'm sorry that Ukraine isn't able to sort things out - I would MUCH rather have had you join than the Balkan states (Romania/Bulgaria/Croatia/etc) - but that was your only chance and its gone. Once another wave of Eastern European immigration hits the rest of the EU this January then any further expansion east will be halted for a generation.

This is way way way OT, mods must all be on hols :P

i'm pretty glad my parents moved out of Ukraine tbh Big smile

if it's not someone with their foot on our throats or apartment buildings collapsing or someone hoarding electricity/energy or a terrible airport safety record...it's something else to be happy to be separated from.

Ukraine should stay the hell out of Europe. EU and primarily the UK are getting enough poor people from eastern europe and we don't want anymore. Well done Putin.

The reason that happens is because we are one of two (IIRC) countries in the EU who have a non-contributory benefits system and you cannot discriminate based on country of birth. You are either an EU citizen or you are not. If you are then (with some delay) you get the money. Simple as that.

Amazed this is still open :)

Edit - I'd rather have Ukraine than some of the more recent accession countries but I can't see Russia accepting it. Not going down that rabbit hole of discussion though.....

Wow.. Three pages and no moderation.

Must be out for the day. I'm thinking of some good threads to post now.

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?
