The more accurate number is probably about a third of that amount:

Quote:
The Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a research institute in Germany, tracks international military, financial and humanitarian assistance allocated and committed to Ukraine since 2022. It estimates the total international assistance committed to Ukraine by the US and European countries since 2022 is approximately €366 billion (about $383 billion)—about one-third of which has come from the US.

So now we can see why Zelensky is using the EU to block trump's plans.

EU is mostly agreeing that Russia needs to be stopped. In the EU, there is a solidarity fund, in cases of natural or man-caused disasters, even for countries like Ukraine that are aspiring EU countries and are suffering invasion. People here stand with Ukraine.

My country got over 1 billion euros after earthquakes destroyed some parts of it. Were we using the EU?
