Washington has spent 100 billion dollars for aid to Ukraine, and US allies and partners have spent about 150 billion dollars, Blinken announced this at the session of the Foreign Relations Council held in New York on December 18.
The US Secretary of State noted that most of that money was spent on the American military-industrial complex. "We spent a lot of money on the defense of Ukraine, about 100 billion dollars, and our allies and partners spent about 150 billion dollars on it.
When they talk about sharing the burden, this is the best example of sharing the burden that I have ever seen. And by the way, it's important to explain to people that the money that we've spent on the defense of Ukraine has mostly been spent here in the United States on our own defense industrial base to manufacture, to build what the Ukrainians need to defend themselves. . As a result, good jobs were created in America," said Blinken.
