Interesting reframing. Cost of aid to #ukraine in cups of coffee per month.

(by @topleadEU)

A map titled "Aid to Ukraine Costs a European 1.2 Cups of Coffee a Month" shows the total bilateral aid provided to Ukraine recalculated into cups of coffee per capita per month. European countries contribute amounts ranging from 0.7 to 7.7 cups, with Scandinavian and Baltic countries contributing the most: Norway at 7.7 cups, Estonia at 6.5 cups, and Latvia at 5.8 cups. The U.S. contributes 2.5 cups per month, while Japan and New Zealand contribute 0.2 and 0.1 cups, respectively. Sources include the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, World Bank, and Mandore Media.

@infobeautiful Caption should be corrected: the little peninsula protruding from Germany contributing 7.7 cups/month is Denmark.

@infobeautiful Interesting. I’d love to see aid to Israel & total arms expenditure done this way as a comparison.

@infobeautiful How is this calculated? There's literally no way that Germany has provided more aid to Ukraine than Poland.
