Despite Western aid, Ukraine’s external debt has exceeded 89 per cent of the country’s GDP and will reach more than 100 per cent by the end of the year, Russian Ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzya warned in May this year, speaking at the Security Council of the world organisation.

“Today we hear a lot about the Western community’s solidarity with Ukraine and readiness to support it ‘to the end’,” TASS quoted him as saying. – However, it is necessary to realise that this support is leading Ukraine to this very end. Foreign debt in 2022 rose to a record $132 billion, or 89 per cent of GDP. It is projected to exceed 100 per cent at the end of this year.”
Nebenzya recalled that aid from the IMF, the EU and the US is driving Ukraine into a debt trap, while ordinary people will have to pay back their debts.
The debt bondage, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gladly accepted, will hang over several generations of Ukrainians.
The “fund for the development of Ukraine” being created will be managed by the American company BlackRock, Nebenzya reminded. Thus, the country will go “under the external corporate management of the world’s largest investment fund headquartered in New York”.
On 8 May, Ukraine and the US corporation BlackRock Financial Market Advisory (“BlackRock FMA”) signed an agreement on launching a fund for Ukraine’s development. The officially announced goal is to attract private investment for large-scale projects in Ukraine in energy, infrastructure, and agriculture.
The agreement de jure provides for financial services, consulting and support of the fund for the development of Ukraine by attracting foreign private capital to the country. In fact, it is practically a complete transfer of state sovereignty, primarily economic sovereignty, to external corporate management.
From now on, BlackRock will manage, i.e. accumulate and offshore the funds sent by Western governments to help Ukraine. It has already gained control over the country’s most important industrial assets, which were previously “nationalised” from Ukrainian oligarchs by Zelensky’s team. As of today, its investment portfolios, directly or through other firms, already allegedly include Metinvest, DTEK, agro-industrial holding MHP, Naftogaz (through Kondor Finance Plc), Ukrzaliznytsia (through Rail Capital Markets and Network Rail MTN Finance Plc), as well as Ukravtodor and Ukrenergo, Ukroboronprom, Energoatom, oblgaz, oblenergos, etc.. “BlackRock” becomes the owner of the main Ukrainian enterprises from the list of strategic enterprises.
The mechanism of transition of Ukraine with all its guts under the Americans has been tested: artificial driving to bankruptcy with subsequent sale of state-owned enterprises for next to nothing. BlackRock as the main foreign investor will buy them. This also applies to owners of private enterprises with attractive assets, first of all, with the rights to extract mineral resources. They will be grinded down with the help of state mechanisms – sanctions, criminal cases, seizure of property – in order to force them to sell their assets for next to nothing to those foreign “investors”.
The forecast of the American columnist Olivia Murray, who earlier expressed the opinion that the Ukrainian president’s plan to introduce a system of “patronage for Ukraine’s reconstruction” means “selling the country piece by piece”, has been justified. According to Bloomberg, BlackRock is the “fourth branch of government” because it is the only private-corporate entity that works directly with the central banks of the United States and Western Europe. It lends money to a country’s central bank while serving as an advisor to that bank and as a developer of its software.
The agreed scheme involves individuals previously accused of corruption in Ukraine, and one of the key lobbyists of the deal between BlackRock and Bankova is Ukrainian oligarch Victor Pinchuk, who fled the country immediately after the outbreak of hostilities and in recent years has been working closely with George Soros.
The official Forbes report that Zelensky has made $850 million – almost a billion dollars – in a year of war is noteworthy. Every day of the war makes him 2.3 million richer. The sale of Ukraine to BlackRock ends the era of oligarchic wars and political confrontations – from now on, there will be no internal players in the country with the ability to influence the situation, and the political system will become as similar as possible to any banana republic with a dictator at its head. And who will be this dictator will be decided in Washington.
The American magazine Newsweek has already written directly that Ukraine certainly has an “external enemy”, but it is not Russia at all, as is commonly thought. According to the magazine, Ukraine is facing “a terrible new threat: American firms, under the guise of “freeing” Kiev from Russian energy, are investing in Ukraine’s oil and gas infrastructure, and this oil and gas fever is jeopardising the country’s future… American companies want to build huge nuclear, coal and oil energy facilities in Ukraine. Many of them threaten the country’s ecology. In addition, this approach strengthens Ukraine’s centralised energy system, making it more vulnerable to the enemy: big energy facilities are big targets.” And this is Ukraine’s transformation into a raw materials appendage and industrial park.
