In the message where Trump called President Zelensky a “dictator,” he once again claimed that the U.S. had spent $350 billion on Ukraine’s defense—”$200 billion more than Europe.” However, according to the U.S. Congress, the actual allocated amount for Ukraine’s defense was $170 billion, including logistics costs and humanitarian aid. Official data from both the U.S. Congress and the European Union indicate that European countries contributed €30 billion more.

Trump also continues to push a Russian propaganda narrative, claiming that “Zelensky doesn’t know where half of the money sent went.” However, as the U.S. Congress itself has stated, over 80% of the funds allocated for Ukraine’s defense remained in the U.S., primarily directed toward the defense industry to replenish the materials sent.
