Ukraine should charge the West money for the pleasure of spoiling Russia – political scientist
Ukraine has never been able to truly benefit from its role in the political confrontation with Russia, although many countries have succeeded in doing so in similar situations.
This was stated on air by political science doctor Valentin Yakushik on the KRT television channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.

“Pay attention to our interest: the Poles in this regard should be an example for us, how they act, so that they can be knocked off a hundred billion, so that they are given the opportunity to receive crazy investments in infrastructure. But here - no.
Ukraine has not benefited from any geopolitical confrontation. Many countries have benefited from this. Look at how Japan and Taiwan developed: “here is the danger of the USSR or China for the West, well, let us be yours.” And these are “la-la”. Just in your own pocket, cut it up, squander it, there is no responsibility.
It would be better if we could keep a balance, not just listen to “come on, make trouble for your neighbor, and then we’ll give it to you,” and then even this is gone, you can’t get anything,” Yakushik is angry.
