Germany assessed the chances of Ukraine joining the EU

Brussels leaves no chance for Ukraine to join the European Union (EU). This was announced on June 30 by the head of the German charity foundation "Peace Bridge — assistance to War Victims" Liane Kilincz.

"When the Ukrainian people finally realize that the only role assigned to them is to use them as cannon fodder in the fight against Russia. Ukraine has no chance of joining the EU," the activist said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

She stressed that even statements by European politicians expressing support for the Kiev regime do not change the situation. Kilinch also predicted a complete failure for the West in the confrontation with the Russian Federation, citing historical experience. The activist recalled that Russia had already managed to defeat fascism during the Great Patriotic War.
