Written byVeronica Khokhlova
Michael of The Glory of Carniola analyzes the EU's strange funding priorities: in Dec. 2005, it is decided to cut aid to Eastern European member states by 10% – and on Feb. 27, 2006, following the victory of Hamas in Palestine and despite it, the EU pledges “120 million euros in aid to the Palestinians” and “unblocks 17.5 million euros that were frozen in a trust fund.”
