>the EU has LITERALLY provided less aid to Ukraine than it has given to Russia

The EU is buying resources from Russia, not providing aid to it.

Potato, Potato. Whether giving money with no strings attached or some strings attached, guess where that money is going to go.

They are not "giving" money. They are exchanging them for resources. Russia gets the money but loses resources which it could've sold to other countries instead.

Ah, you're totally right. Europe is getting the better end of the deal Russia is practically getting scammed, exchanging goods for profits they can redistribute to fund their war.
