As of today, with Russia's war against Ukraine lasting more than three years, 46% of Americans are convinced that the United States is not doing enough to help our country in this war. Thus, support for aid to Ukraine in American society has increased by 16% compared to December last year, UNN writes with reference to Gallup.
Details
At the same time, the share of those who believe that the US is doing too much (30%) or enough (23%) for Ukraine has decreased.
Until now, the highest percentage of Americans who believed that the US was not doing enough to help Ukraine was 38% and was recorded during the initial measurement of this issue in August 2022.
At that time, opinions were more evenly divided: 36% said that the US was providing the right amount of support, and 24% believed that they were doing too much.
In the first half of 2023, Americans became more satisfied with US involvement, as by June the number of those who said they were providing sufficient aid to Ukraine increased to 43%.
However, opinion soon changed amid criticism from some Republican leaders regarding the amount of aid the US is providing to Ukraine to wage war. In October 2023, 41% of respondents believed that the US was doing too much to help Ukraine. Also, two 2024 polls showed that opinions were divided, although about 40% still say that the US is doing too much.
The latest strengthening of Americans' conviction that the US is not doing enough to help Ukraine is explained by an increase in the number of supporters of this opinion among voters of both political parties. In particular, the number of such people among supporters of the Democratic Party increased by 31%, and among supporters of the Republican Party by 14%. Moreover, among Republicans, the number of those who believe that the US is doing too much for Ukraine has decreased.
Other poll results in March 2025 showed the following results:
53% of Americans want the US to help Ukraine regain territory, even if it prolongs the conflict. 63% believe that neither side will win the war.

Beijing can provide assistance in the reconstruction of Ukraine "in accordance with the wishes of the parties." This was stated by the spokesman of the China International Development Cooperation Agency, also known as China Aid, Li Ming.
Talks about post-war support for Ukraine intensified after US President Donald Trump's promise to end the war in Ukraine.
White House Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields stated that US President Donald Trump is serious about a future conversation with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
