They didn't even have much of this foreign aid for most of the time, unless you count the American payout for the disposal of nuclear weapons. The source of corruption is Ukrainian industries, being in the hands of shady and powerul oligarchs just like in Russia.
There was no "indiscriminate bombing of ethnic Russians within their borders" other than few incidents in mid 2014. Which were not unlike the Russian indiscriminate "bombing" (shelling/rocketing) of ethnic Russians within Ukrainian borders throughout 2014 (not caring about Minsk I) and also in early 2015. The last attack that could not be explained by a battle was the Russian rocketing of Mariupol on January 24 of 2015. After Minsk II in March '15 there was never nothing even remotely similar by either side for almost 7 full years.
