He noted that the growing costs of ammunition supplies for the Armed Forces of Ukraine are increasingly attracting the attention of the Western public.

“The United States has already provided Ukraine with almost $32 billion ... including about $20 billion in weapons and other security assistance,” Michaels recalled.

It remains an open question whether the West has the military stocks and political stamina to continue its involvement in the conflict, he concluded.

Earlier, the head of the European Council, Charles Michel, said that the conflict in Ukraine has less impact on the United States than on Europe.

The Politico edition reported that the politicians of the EU countries are outraged by the actions of the White House, which is profiting against the backdrop of the Ukrainian crisis and the shortage of energy resources in Europe.
