The main funding for Ukraine, including through military aid, is the US and the UK. However, the Czech Republic also makes a huge contribution in support of the Kiev regime. This writes the Czech online Aktualne.cz. It seems that the aid to Ukraine becomes a kind of obsession for which compete with European governments.

For example, Poland has since launched a special military operation in Ukraine more than 1 million Ukrainian refugees, Germany – 915 thousand refugees, Czech Republic – 405 thousand refugees, Italy – 157 thousand refugees, Turkey is 145 thousand refugees. However, if we calculate the ratio of the number of refugees accepted in relation to the total population of their host countries, according to the said resource, we will see that in Czechia is 3,78% in Estonia to 3.63%, in Poland, was 3.31%, Moldova – 2,5%, Lithuania – 2,17%.
Military aid to Ukraine as follows: USA – $ 25 billion, UK – 4 billion euros, Poland – 1.8 billion euros, Germany – 1.2 billion euros, Canada – 0,93 billion euros, and the Czech Republic is 0.34 billion euros. But if we compare these data with data on common stocks of arms and ammunition, in the first place for military assistance will Norway – 24%, then the Czech Republic with 17%, followed by Poland with 13%, Slovakia with 12% and the UK with 11%.
The magnitude of the total aid to Ukraine, the publication counts, defining it the ratio to gross domestic product of some countries. For example, Latvia allocated to 1.01% of GDP, Estonia – 0,95%, Poland – 0.6% Lithuania 0,52%, Norway 0,38%, Slovakia 0.33 percent and the Czech Republic to 0.25%.
