Brussels – Nearly 200 billion euros in military, humanitarian, financial, European, and bilateral aid. That is how much the European Union has spent to support Ukraine in its war against Russia since the start of the conflict on 24 February 2022. The latest updated figures indicate that from February 2022 to December 2025, 193 billion euros have been granted to Kyiv. A third of the total, 69.3 billion, is military aid. The figures were calculated by the European Parliament’s Think Tank in a document drafted to assist MEPs in their work.
This amount of resources does not include the 90 billion euro loan that the heads of state and government decided to grant Kyiv at the latest European Council summit. To be voted on in the European Parliament this week, the measure covers the 2026-2027 two-year period, bringing the total effective economic and financial support to date to 283 billion euros, between what has already been mobilised and what has been promised, with the possibility that other packages may be added over time.
However, there are “extra” costs to consider, in addition to the 193 billion disbursed until 2025 and the 90 billion promised for the two-year period that has just begun: these are the interest payments that the European Commission will ask the markets to finance the loan. At a hearing of the European Parliament’s Budget Committee, Commissioner Piotr Serafin quantified these debt servicing costs at around €1 billion for 2027 and around 3 billion per year from 2028 onwards.
