Under Biden, the United States donated more than 3 million 155-millimeter shells
Germany has shipped nearly half a million 155-millimeter shells to Ukraine—and is expanding domestic shell production in order to sustain supplies through 2025.
[…]
The Czech initiative delivered 1.5 million shells last year and will continue unless and until the current government loses reelection to pro-Russian parties later this year. The Estonian initiative is just spooling up—and aims to ship 1 million shells in 12 months.
It’s all a logistical mess, but the bottom line is that Ukraine and its allies have established redundant supply lines for critical artillery and associated ammunition.
The Americans may quit the war. But that won’t prevent Ukraine’s biggest guns from firing away for the foreseeable future.
0.5 + 1.5 + 1 = 3 same as the US did during Biden.
About the oil: yes, Russia sells deeply discounted oil to India just for them to resell it at a markup, and this benefits India… but this arrangement is still interesting for Russia and Europe, since Russia needs to sell, even at a discount, and Europe needs to buy, even at a markup… if selling/buying the oil wasn’t beneficial they would not be selling/buying it.
But I think the article is talking about direct sales, since Europe still buys directly from Russia (and Russia still sells to Europe), which I think is what the article seems to be criticizing.
No, that’s not US propaganda. Vast majority of the material aid that Europe provided was made in the US. The stocks NATO have been using to feed their proxy war have now run down, and that’s why production capacity matters. Meanwhile, the wikipedia link is just literally some bozo making claims.
That’s US propaganda. Europe is providing just as much artillery as the US has, and it has plans to ramp up.

No, Russia does not sell deeply discounted oil to India. They sell very slightly discounted oil that’s priced effectively at market rates. Go look it up if you don’t believe me. Buying Russian oil through India at a markup in no way benefits Europe. This is indisputable given what we see happening in the main industrial power in Europe https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-25/germany-s-industry-crisis-deepens-as-bosch-cuts-13-000-workers
