    I don’t really understand what the different shades of green are supposed to mean. Why are Sweden and Germany the exact same colour even though Germany contributed four times as much?

  2. Canada 14 billion with a population of 40 million, is impressive compared to Italy, 14 billion with a population of over 60. Sweden and Norway are also outliers with the amount donated, well done.

    Romania does not disclose the amount and the help it gives it’s basically classified.
    That aid specified there is mostly through the EU and a Patriot AA battery that it gave.

  4. It’s frustrating that my beautifull country of Czechia had both main parties in charge since the start of the war. One whose literally main gig is we support Ukraine. And we gave shit.

    Since the start of the war in February 2022, Switzerland has allocated a bit over 6 billion Swiss francs in support related to Ukraine. Converted into U.S. dollars, that’s roughly $6.5–6.8 billion USD.

  6. So much cheaper than having to send your own people and resources to fight directly.

    This is basically a cost saving measure

    Is this embarrassing for Swiss people? Rich ass country giving almost the smallest amount?

  8. Weapons industry is doing well. Everyone with large investments in that should be closely monitored.

  9. For anyone interested in this map in relation to GDP: [Here](https://www.kielinstitut.de/topics/war-against-ukraine/ukraine-support-tracker).

    I think it is clear that proximity to Russia plays a decisive role in determining who is willing to give how much. Even if Germany can be criticised here for giving less in relation to GDP than many Eastern European countries, it is only fair to say that, compared to many other Western European countries (Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, etc.), it also gives significantly more in terms of GDP and even more in total figures (see above).

  10. Didn’t Russia donate a whole lot of kit to Ukraine as well? I remember all those Ukrainian tractors hauling the donations back from the front…

  11. There are several types of aid.

    There is non-repayable aid; another part is ‘investment’, i.e. loans; and the largest part is actually money that the US earns because we Europeans have bought weapons from them for the Ukrainians.

    Perhaps that is why Trump has not managed to finalise it in a week, as he promised during the elections?

  12. I would say that South Korea and its northern brothers also influenced this war. South Korea produces a large number of shells for Ukraine, and given the shortage of shells on the front line, South Korea should not be ignored.

    Money is not everything, weapons, ammunition and manpower are more important than money.

    No, no, no you can’t list America giving $115B.

    This is Reddit. America hasn’t given a penny to Ukraine and you can’t show anything that contradicts that.

    If it’s not $200B and it’s not Trump personally rolling up to Zelensky’s office to deliver each check, it doesn’t count.

  14. With all that money spent should Ukrainian troops be dancing inside the Kremlin by now am I missing something here

    That’s interesting on Britain’s smaller contributions considering they were the first nation to arm Ukraine in the months before the war, and supply critical weapons such as Storm Shadow.

  16. Given Norway’s economic prosperity and current surplus, I believe an increased contribution is warranted. It is important to note, however, that Norway has already absorbed a number of Ukrainian refugees equivalent to the combined intake of Denmark and Sweden, which represents a substantial financial commitment
