Financial and military aids
Who are the most generous supporters of Ukraine?
For the time being, Donald Trump put the US aid for Ukraine on hold. The country loses a large donor in the war against Russia. How dramatic is that?
Donald Trump likes to complain. About his predecessor, who laced up a billion dollar aid packages for Ukraine. And about the Europeans who, from Trump’s view, stir in the military and financial aid.
The US President points out that his country supported Ukraine with more than $ 350 billion-equivalent to 330 billion euros. In contrast, Europe would only have contributed 95 billion euros, complained Trump and complained that the performance was primarily loans that Ukraine had to repay.
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen then pointed out at the Munich Security Conference in February that Europe had provided 134 billion euros. “This is more than anything else contributed.”
Who is right? And who can Ukraine still count on?
Data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy (IFW) show: Trump is next to it, and tremendous.
