As of the end of April 2025, the main donors are the USA, the United Kingdom, and Germany, which have provided the largest amounts of financial, military, and humanitarian support. At the same time, the Baltic and Scandinavian countries demonstrate the highest level of assistance relative to their own economies, dedicating a significant portion of their budgets to support Ukraine.

In addition to assistance from individual countries, European institutions also play a significant role. The contribution from the European Union has reached €61.18 billion, which has become an important source of support for the Ukrainian economy and defense.
At the same time, some states are almost not involved in supporting Ukraine. Among them are Iceland, Turkey, New Zealand, and Hungary, which have limited their participation to a minimum.
