Everyone knows Banks funded Brexit via offshore funds which are almost certainly from Russia. The circumstantial evidence is clear, even if webs of offshore companies makes it impossible to trace in any above board way. Speak to any intelligence people off record and it’s an accepted known.
Never mind the emails offering Banks stakes in Russian gold mines for free, meetings with Russian officials, his Russian wife who’s got links to Russian secret services…forget all that. Bank has never made enough money to cover his total donations to the leave campaign! The companies he’s sold do not amount to the millions he donated
A relative pauper by political donation standards, he remains the largest political donor ever in the UK. Even billionaires don’t squander the sums he did.
The west doesn’t want to add Ukraine to NATO because they don’t really wish to be drawn into Russias backyard. And it might to the opposit of ending things. It could enflame the situation. While the right wing in the US love to play the old anti-commie games funding separatist anti-russian factions in Ukraine, the EU and most in America realise it’s best not to poke the bear. Adding Ukraine to nato would complicate matters and potentially cause further division. The reality is the east of Ukraine is already Russian. The people were always largely ethnically russian. And now they are supported by the russian state accessing better paid russian pensions etc. If you tear all of Ukraine away from Russia you risk enflaming a civil war and division based on ethnic lines.
