Oh, it's worse than that. US Lend Lease to Ukraine was what, $30B? And that money hasn't been even tapped yet. I don't know the current numbers today, but I'm thinking at least $5B has gone to Ukraine in arms, just from the United States. Ukraine's pre-war military budget seems to be about $6B. US is basically subsidizing UKR defense spending for the next 5 years. Given the US defense budget is ~$1T, spending < 10% to drastically depleting the Russian military (without even using US forces) is an opportunity that will not be squandered. Russia can complain all they want, but the truth is they can stop this war immediately by withdrawing. It's a war of choice that they can no longer withdraw from.
