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.

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
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
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.
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
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
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.
