$54 billion
In two separate packages, Congress has appropriated $54 billion in assistance to Ukraine. On an inflation-adjusted basis, the United States has already allocated more money for assistance to Ukraine in the past five months than it did on a yearly basis during the height of the Marshall Plan.

71 percent
Concerns about China’s presence in the Russian Far East have waned somewhat in recent years, and China is broadly popular among the Russian public. According to the Pew Research Center, 71 percent of Russians said they viewed China positively in 2019—the highest of all 35 countries surveyed. However, China’s presence in the Russia Far East continues to provoke negative views.

$52 billion
The United States and the European Union are embarking on parallel policy tracks involving the commitment of large public resources to strengthening indigenous semiconductor capability. In the United States, legislation being reconciled in Congress provides for $52 billion in federal outlays, while the European Union’s initiatives envision new and previously committed public investments of comparable magnitude.
