Will Europe pay the U.S. for military aid to Ukraine? | Inside Story

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the U.S. has provided Kyiv with billions of dollars in military assistance.

Much of it was delivered during the Biden administration.

President Donald Trump is now complaining that those weapons and ammunition were transferred free of charge.

He says Europe should have covered the cost, and that the U.S. will be asking for that money back.

Funding Ukraine’s defences against Russia has been a thorny issue between the U.S. and its European allies.
With no end in sight to the fighting, will the two sides reach common ground—and keep supporting Kyiv?
