Vance: ‘We’re done with the funding of the Ukraine war business’
JD Vance announced the US will stop directly funding Ukraine’s military, urging European nations to increase support amid growing American public fatigue, after over $70 billion in aid.
- U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance announced on August 10, 2025, that the U.S. would no longer fund Ukraine's war effort directly.
- This policy shift follows Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and reflects growing American fatigue with continuous financial support.
- Vance explained the administration expects European allies to increase their funding role while U.S. arms sales to Europe will continue to support Ukraine indirectly.
- Ukraine needs $6 billion this year to maintain weapons production, but timely funding is now under pressure despite Zelensky’s refusal to concede territory and ongoing international diplomatic efforts.
- This change signals increased demands on NATO members for defense budgets and could accelerate equipment deliveries, suggesting a more Europe-centered approach to Ukraine's defense support.
