Trump on Tuesday said, without citing a source, that Zelensky's approval rating was at 4 percent in Ukraine. Zelensky alleged Trump had succumbed to "disinformation" from Russia in the comments. In comments made following Zelensky's remarks, Trump took to social media to say that the Ukrainian president had "talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion," a claim that is not backed by evidence.
There is no evidence that the U.S. has spent or committed $350 billion toward Ukraine.
The Special Inspector General for Operation Atlantic Resolve (OAR), which handles U.S. oversight of this spending, states Congress has appropriated or otherwise made available nearly $183 billion toward Ukraine and OAR, of which $130.1 billion has been obligated and $86.7 disbursed, between fiscal years 2022 and 2024.
