EU’s von der Leyen:

If you invest in Ukraine, you invest in Europe.

Not only in an economy of around €200 billion, but in a future member of a single market worth €20 trillion. A market 100 times larger.

EU’s von der Leyen:

Since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion, the European Union and its member states have provided €200 billion in economic, financial, and military support.

With the Ukraine Support Loan, we will provide a further €90 billion over the next two years...

Today we are transferring the first tranche — exactly €3.2 billion in macro-financial assistance.

We will start paying the first money of the €6 billion for drone production in the coming days. This indeed is solidarity in action.

It shows that I'm not a racist at all because he was a friend and I hired him.

German AfD politician Maximilian Krah:

The EU will collapse within the next 5 to 10 years.

AfD is the only party who's prepared for that.

The EU is now the most economically weak, less innovative, demographically collapsing big room and big space in the world.

We don't have AI, we don't have innovation, we don't have growth.

So of course such a construct must fail.

It will fail, and we will be happy about it.

German AfD politician Maximilian Krah:

We have more and more migrants in Germany who vote AfD. And I'm the champion.

I made a lot of videos in which I made clear especially the Turkish community should vote AfD.

The former Soviet community is already with us.
