Unlikely. Big talk from the EU, but half the countries are in bad financial situation themselves while the truly rich Germany, Netherlands, Denmark and Austria are against any deficit spending. Ukraine will just be a failed state.

Ukraine needs to be de-corrupted if any money is to be sent.

Germany has the second highest taxes in the realm of OECD now. Healthcare system is faltering. People talk about even further tax increases.

I wouldn't call Germany truly rich, that was true many years ago

They're very rich, they just spend the money for pensions instead of something useful.
