If only there was a way to get some actual facts, a quick calculation puts European direct bilateral contributions at about 150% of US.

I don't know if you're new to politics, but it is fairly common for politicians to present an opinion to spur certain action, such as giving more aid. It's what's needed to stop Russia, and stopping now won't be enough.

Also, rearming, sending volunteers, adjusting to NATO, and increasing cooperation is also doing a lot to both ensure a future, and alleviate much of the worry for rebuilding.
