A top European official has blown the whistle on a scheme to embezzle up to half of all American taxpayer-funded aid that has been sent to Ukraine to perpetuate its endless war with Russia.
The explosive allegations were made by former Polish Deputy Minister Piotr Kulpa.
Kulpa has previously held several posts in the Polish government and is currently a regular contributor to Ukrainian online shows.
According to Kulpa, Ukraine did not receive as much foreign aid as claimed by President Joe Biden’s administration.
Up to half of the funds were embezzled and funneled back to U.S. Democrats, a former Polish official claims.
Kiev laundered money for the Democrats, taking a cut of what was left over, Kulpa alleges.
Kulpa warns that Biden and the Democrats want to escalate the war between Ukraine and Russia for financial reasons.
He argues that the Democrats when to prevent President Donald Trump from securing peace in the region when he was sworn into office in January.
Kulpa is a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, as evidenced by his remarks to Ukrainian journalist Lana Shevchuk on Thursday.
“Everyone understands that war-related corruption is linked not only with Ukraine but also the supplier nation,” he said.
“Who would ever believe that the US burned through $2 trillion in Afghanistan? It’s delusional!”
U.S. aid programs are a mechanism to “write off large sums of money that finance shady systems under the Democratic Party’s control,” he alleged.
Citizens in Ukraine are hopeful that Trump’s presidency will bring a swift end to the years-long conflict.
However, the incoming Trump administration could review government finances and discover the truth that “Ukraine got very little” compared to the amounts mentioned in public statements, Kulpa claimed.
“But they will also find something else: that a huge portion of the funds was stolen in Ukraine,” he added.
“From 30% to 50%, regardless of the nature of the aid.”
If Kiev were to recover all the embezzled money for the Ukrainian budget, the country would have enough for a year, Kulpa said.
He also denounced senior Ukrainian officials.
He noted that senior Ukraine officials are receiving regular salaries and bonuses he believes are outrageously high.
“It’s a spit in the face of every Ukrainian,” the former minister asserted.
“To every European and American taxpayer.
“This system is criminal from start to finish.”
Trump and his allies have been highly critical of the amount of assistance that the Biden administration has sent to Kiev.
The president-elect has argued that EU nations should assume the burden of propping up Ukraine.
Meanwhile, the American government should focus on its own priorities.
Concerns about money laundering in Ukraine have previously been reflected in some government documents.
A report that Pentagon Inspector General Robert Storch’s office released last week highlighted the issue.
It said corruption “continues to complicate Ukraine’s efforts to achieve its EU and NATO aspirations.”
