EU’s €90B Ukraine Loan EXPOSED – The Reality Brussels Is Hiding | John Mearsheimer

What unfolded in Brussels this week may prove more damaging to the Western order than any single clash on the Ukrainian battlefield. I have spent my career studying how great powers behave under pressure—watching empires weaken, alliances fracture, and leaders convince themselves they still have control. Yet when the news reached me yesterday morning, I stopped mid-lecture.

The European Union approved a €90 billion loan for Ukraine, and within hours the headlines called it a “historic show of unity.” Let’s be honest about what this actually is. It isn’t humanitarian relief. It isn’t rebuilding shattered cities. It isn’t economic recovery. This money exists for one purpose only: to keep the war going. To prolong a conflict Europe cannot decisively win—but politically feels unable to walk away from.

What matters here isn’t just the size of the loan. It’s the anxiety behind it. This decision wasn’t driven by confidence or strategy. It was driven by fear—fear of admitting failure, fear of losing credibility, fear of confronting the limits of Western power. Loans like this don’t signal strength. They signal desperation dressed up as solidarity.
