Re: Is Russia an ally or foe, nowadays?
Of coarse you cannot. It would be illogical.
The comparison should be made between surviving economies of the EU.
Britain, Germany or France against Ukraine and against Armenia.
Any assistance not wisely used or put in another way, does not achieve expected results means the country is drifting towards dependence on assistance.
Reason, corruption and wastage taking its toll.
If we wish to estimate the realistic costs to transform Ukraine, the integration of East Germany would be a reasonable model.
East Germany had a far superior economy than Ukraine would have had.
How much did it cost West Germany to integrate East Germany?
It was so high it brought West Germany to its knees with a terrible recession.
For West Germany it was worth it because East Germans were their kith and kin.
Eventually Germany would become larger and stronger.
Is there enough justification for Germany to sacrifice so much for Ukraine. Only a political dividend is expected.
