Has the US really given Ukraine more aid than Europe?

Donald Trump says the US has given Ukraine $350 billion. The data doesn鈥檛 agree with him.

As negotiations to end the Ukraine war rumble on, Donald Trump seems equally interested in talking about the past, repeatedly claiming that the US has given much more aid to Ukraine than Europe has, and that Europe鈥檚 aid took the form of a loan that they鈥檒l be getting back.

Emmanuel Macron has publicly contradicted the US President - so who鈥檚 correct?

Nathan Gower speaks to Taro Nishikawa, project lead at the Kiel Institute鈥檚 Ukraine Support Tracker to get the true picture.
