12. You know, its not everything about money. What about the cultural aspect and travel restrictions?

EU members travel freely from one country to another, and can even find jobs and work anywhere they please. But again, its not just about money. I tend to believe liberation from Russia means a lot more than just that. And I'm aware Ukraine is considered its own country, but the way Russia is keeping them so tied up and dependent on them, it perheps doesnt feel the same to the people.

Just my take on it.
