I wonder what price freedom. The EU is a fragile grouping that benefits Germany banking. That's why I said Frankfurt. The reason I say fragile is that the Netherlands, one of the original members of the World bank is in better financial state than Germany and would no doubt leave the EU before their country had to suffer and that would collapse the EU.

I'm not sure Western Ukraine would have much freedom once the German banks start making their demands in a few years. Just ask Greece, Spain, Ireland. They have had to surrender some of their sovereignty to please the banks.
