U.S. Aid to Ukraine Declines Under Trump Administration
President Trump's efforts to end the conflict in Ukraine have coincided with a notable reduction in U.S. support for the country. Since taking office for a second term in January 2025, no new major aid legislation has been enacted, according to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
As of March 31, 2026, Congress had made available $195 billion in Ukraine-related spending, with $164 billion authorized by legislative packages passed before Trump's return to office. Deliveries from these funds have continued, but with two temporary pauses reported.
The pace of aid delivery has also slowed. By March 2026, 59% of the allocated $195 billion had been disbursed, with the remainder either obligated or still in the pipeline. Without new appropriations, aid disbursement is expected to decline as existing funds are exhausted.
From February 2022 to June 2026, the U.S. committed over $68.2 billion in defense articles and services for Ukraine. This includes $31.7 billion via Presidential Drawdown Authority, $33.5 billion under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, and $3.7 billion in Foreign Military Financing.
U.S. foreign aid to Ukraine has sharply decreased in fiscal years 2025 and 2026. In FY2025, Ukraine received about $6.7 billion, a 34.1% drop from the previous year. In FY2026, to date, only $214.4 million has been provided, predominantly in economic and humanitarian assistance.
