At the end of the year will I be convinced based on public media sources that either the EU itself or a major EU country (e.g. Germany) significantly funded Scottish separatists in the last decade? Significant funding means at least 10% of the overall cumulative budget of separatist movements.

I doubt it. We know that Russia did some meddling though.
