Found the answer to my question; it was in 2014.

I do believe Kissinger was correct; the billions donated to the Ukrainian armed forces is a misallocation of resources.

What does the USA get for $5 Billion ? Half a billion dollars worth of damage to the Russian armed forces ? i guess we're hoping for a deterrence effect.

Doesn't seem right to me. Like when Trump sent 62 cruise missiles into Syria at $1 million a pop. Did about $50,000 worth of damage to an airfield. I guess it was just suppose to scare the enemies, including Russia.

Haven't heard anything about the war in Syria lately, except some strategic strikes by Israel.
