Paul Roderick Gregory: Europe gives $260 billion for anti-EU Greece but balks at $65 billion for pro-Europe Ukraine
A picture taken on March 27, 2015 shows a man walking past a currency exchange office protected by sandbags against potential shelling, in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk, controlled by pro-Russian separatists.
Greece's election of an anti-Europe government showed it wants out. Ukraine's EuroMaidan revolution shows it was willing to risk its existence to become a part of Europe. Europe has showered recalcitrant Greece with hundreds of billions of bailout funds while begrudgingly giving Ukraine tens of billions just to keep it alive, even though Ukraine is fighting Europe’s war against Russian expansionism.
