Nice.
But even that figure is hugely INFLATED:
“February 25, 2025. A groundbreaking [study](http://econ4ua.org/aid-value) released today by [Economists for Ukraine](http://econ4ua.org/) reveals that the actual value of U.S. aid to Ukraine is significantly lower than widely reported. Contrary to the U.S. government’s estimate of more than $60 billion in military assistance, the study finds that the real value amounts to approximately **$18.3 billion**. The full report is available at [https://econ4ua.org/aid-value](https://econ4ua.org/aid-value).”
We left over 85 billion on the ground in Afghanistan.
In other words, companies in USA making weapons made $69 billion
Giggity
How much wasn’t even sent tho now that Trump froze it?
Real value is around 18b for military aid due to how US value it (gave old stuff, bought new stuff and counted price of the new stuff as aid)
Mostly $69 billion in used equipment that the US replenishes by buying new equipment for our military. It’s been a jobs program for American workers and a cash cow for the military-industrial complex.
“US accounted goods delivered around 69bil $”
corrected this for you
And that is from the US’s defense budget right ?
Nice
So only $19 billion more than it cost to buy twitter.
Goods and services. Not just goods.
Yes lots of older equipment, but also money spent to restart and ramp up production of certain ammunition (artillery, etc). Also Intel, training, logistics, etc.
It isn’t like the equipment comes with free shipping and handling.
Still, the accounting is what allowed for the increase in systems several times under Biden.
Lastly….and no matter what was provided in the past, UKRAINE NEEDS MORE SUPPORT. PERIOD.
I am so ashamed at my current government. All free nations must provide Ukraine with more support. Enough is enough.
Make Russia Small Again
Gotta also make the US look better why not counting the non-EU European nations in the comparison, thanks CNN.

I’ve said before that Ukraine is becoming a scrapyard. Without exception, all countries only make old equipment available. It is too expensive to dispose of the tanks and missiles yourself, so you sell or give them away to those who need them. Look at Poland. Their military flashes and shines because everything old is being scrapped in Ukraine.
Not to mention the Russian material
We know what condition their material is/was in
And the tears of Trump voters over their tax $$’s could form a lake.
Propaganda can be a devastating weapon.
How much has the U.S. given Musk? Whatever we’ve given to Ukraine for fighting for the world safety from Putin is not enough and whatever has been given to Musk is way too much.
I’m on team UKRAINE and not TEAM RUSSIA
Nice
So the US government is cooking the books, just like so many other US public companies do.
Good. And we need to give way more.
Nice
And $50 billion in cash. The numbers arent inflated🤷🏾♂️
With shitty equipment that won’t work anymore because of orders from Putin. What America has done is fucking despicable.
