Of course XiJinBiden has spent a lot more US wealth than Russia has. Mrs. ‘Hairy Dancer’ needs to sock away a few more billions into the Swiss bank accounts. Those Paris shopping trips really dig into the budget!

So far, the totals spent for Ukraine aid are a pittance compared to the multiple $trillions of dollars Democrats spent on post-Covid vote-buying schemes.

Russia's GDP is less than 10% of ours, and Russia's military spending was already 4% of its GDP in 2021.
Public announcements from Russia say they will spend unlimited funds for the Ukraine war, so we might well suppose they've now doubled that 4% to over 8% of Russia's GDP.

Of course, that's still less than the US spends for defense, but not less than we've spent on Ukraine, and certainly not less in terms of our GDP, of which our military is still around 3% of US GDP.
