It’s actually:
-
US 42.8 bn
-
Germany 7.5 bn
-
UK 6.6 bn
-
EU Institutions 5.6 bn
-
Poland 3 bn
(This list is military aid only.)
Getting a bit tired of the Poland strong propaganda.
Source: Ukraine Support Tracker, ifw Kiel.Do you also believe a flat tax is fair?
Country, Spend, GDP, % of GDP
Poland, 3, 679.4, 0.44%
US, 42.8, 23320, 0.18%
Germany, 7.5, 4260, 0.18%
UK, 6.6, 3131, 0.21%
Then Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania would be top three in that order with Poland only paying half as much in %GDP as Estonia
Estonia 💪💪💪💪💪💪
Baltics have special hatred on vatniks
Do you also believe a flat tax is fair?
I think you might be looking for the term “head tax”, as in each person pays a fixed amount regardless of any other characteristics.
Were doing what we can. I wouldn’t call it propaganda. Please also consider each country GDP. Everyone have limited resources. Poland GDP is 5 times smaller than Germany or Japan and 36 times smaller than US
The US also is kind of built up to be able to almost single handedly be NATO. Our defensive strategies involve using EU countries as bases. We have a vastly different goal with our military stockpiles. (Other than making defense contractors money I mean.)
Well it is when the piss party is trying to convince everyone that Poland is the only country in the EU really helping, especially vs Germany.
This is military aid only.
Yes, it literally says “Military aid” at the top
Edited my comment to clarify that I meant my list. Overall aid would look different US > EU > UK > Germany > Japan > Canada > Poland
Also the EU funds are mainly paid for by the net-payers in the EU Like france, Germany etc.
Also the estimated value for the old polish Tank that we’re transfered was weirdly high
They’re probably old numbers in the comic. Do you have per capita aid figures? Rough calculations say
US $130/p
Germany $90/p
UK $99/p
EU Institutions $13/p (this one is weird since countries are also contributing separately?)
Poland $79/p
Aid as a share of GDP would also be interesting.
On the source website there is quite a bit more. The EU stuff is funded by a share of approximately .2 % of GDP by all EU members in addition to their individual aid.
You mind linking it? I’d love to take a look.
It’s an old comic dude. Also you’re missing the joke as well as any historical context.
Poland has been through the wringer for centuries and even ceased existing for a while. Having some issues and hating Russia are some of the least unlikely results.
Ok
Idc, I could die for the glory of Poland
POLSKA GÓRĄ 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱

It probably swings back toward the scenario depicted if you divide the amount given by the total amount that those countries have available to give, but yeah, good to keep real figures in mind while we have our fun.

I really miss those countryballs.
Poland being based as always
Poland is almost never “based”. Source - am a Pole.
This is the exception, solidarity with Ukraine.
Can confirm. I’m a Pole too.
Oh sorry to hear that :-/ I forgot I wasn’t on r/2visegrad4you
Old joke.
Reporter is interviewing a Polish general. "If Poland were to be attacked by Germany and Russia at the same time, which army would you go after first.?’
‘The Germans.’
‘Why?’
‘Business before pleasure.’
A classic. Along with:
A Polish man finds a genie in a lamp, who gives him three wishes. The Polish man thinks, then says, “I wish the Mongols would pillage their way into Poland, and then go back home to Mongolia.” The genie, confused, complies, and Poland is ravaged by the Mongol hordes.
“Again.” the Polish man says. Dutifully, the genie obeys, sending the Mongols across the steppe to pillage Poland again.
“Again!” the Polish man cries.
The genie complies, but at long last, cannot hold his tongue. “You could have had anything!” the genie says, “Why wish for the Mongols to pillage your own country?”
The Polish man smiles and taps his head. “Ah, but to get to Poland and back to Mongolia, they have to pillage their way through Russia twice.”
Ooooh, I forgot that one!
They don’t really send the best stuff, but old stuff that would be decommissioned.
When “the old stuff we were gonna just sell on eBay” tops the enemy’s “top of the most corrupt line in the world” then that’s really a misleading statement.
The amazing part is how the Ukrainian front lines use the old stuff to such great effect. Imagine if they had new stuff like ATACMs?
Hopefully soon. If they allow atacms, Germany will also give taurus.
I love how Russia public military success plan involves the US getting bored of funneling money to defense contractors without any US or US contractor loss of life.
Good luck with that.
Zapierdol these jebane kurwy please.

I’d love “America First”, if it was about giving aid to all the hungry homeless Americans instead of paying other nations to blow shit up or to fufill a religious prophecy…
Sadly it’s just a Racist Dogwhistle
Some shit needs to be blown up, like genocidal invaders.

That would cost less than what is spent now. So why pretend it is blocked by unrelated topics?
