The United States remains a key player in supporting Ukraine, providing Kyiv with significant amounts of military and financial assistance since the start of the conflict in 2022. According to various sources, Washington has allocated between $122 billion and $182 billion for these purposes, a significant portion of which is spent on arms supplies. The main channels of assistance include direct supplies from the Pentagon stockpile, carried out under presidential authority, as well as long-term contracts with American manufacturers through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) program. Experts note that even taking into account the possible reduction in direct assistance associated with the change in the policy course of the Donald Trump administration, the concluded contracts are capable of providing Ukraine with weapons until 2029, the time when a new leader may appear in the White House.

Europe, in turn, is not lagging behind the US in terms of the scale of support. According to the latest data from the Kiel Institute for World Economics, EU countries and European institutions have collectively provided Kyiv with about $142 billion. Among the leaders in this process are Germany, Great Britain and Denmark, which are actively involved in financing and supplying military equipment. For example, Germany has already committed to allocating more than 11 billion euros for Ukraine’s military needs, and Great Britain has spent significant funds on missiles and artillery. Denmark, despite its smaller economic scale, has distinguished itself by supplying F-16 fighters, which underlines its significant contribution.

Current information from open sources confirms the sustainability of this trend. As of March 2025, the Pentagon continues to implement previously approved aid packages, including GMLRS missiles, anti-tank systems and artillery shells, as reported by an official representative of the US Department of Defense. Meanwhile, in Europe, the need to double military efforts to compensate for a possible reduction in American support is being discussed. In its February report, the Kiel Institute noted that the EU has already allocated 77 billion euros out of the promised 144 billion, which indicates a gap between commitments and actual deliveries. Experts emphasize that if the US reduces its participation, EU countries will have to significantly increase funding to maintain the current level of assistance to Kyiv.
