# How much has Chile given to Ukraine since 2022?

Chile's support for Ukraine since 2022: €5m (<0.01% of one year's GDP: its aid, refugee hosting, private donations and its other parts of support, net of money flowing back). Russia kept €102m (0.03% of GDP) less than without the war, mostly less Russian crude in fuel bought from refiners elsewhere (€89m of €102m). The net is 0.04% of a year's GDP toward Ukraine (likely <0.01% to 0.10% toward Ukraine; very likely · 99%).

Supported Ukraine + cut Russia's earnings from trade = 0.04% of GDP toward Ukraine. Mostly less kept by Russia from trade.

Chance toward Ukraine: 99%; 100% of the other method choices agree.

- Russia's gain: Russia kept 0.03% of GDP less (€98m; likely <0.01% to 0.09% toward Ukraine)
- Chile's own gain from trade with Russia: Chile kept <0.01% of GDP less from its trade with Russia (€4m; likely from <0.01% toward Russia to 0.02% toward Ukraine)

The two lines add up to Russia's earnings from trade; their ranges do not.

## Its story in short

- Two different things added The net adds two different things: help given to Ukraine and the change in what Russia kept from trade. Much of what one country stopped buying, Russia sold to others.

## By year

The year with the largest net amount was 2022: +€45m.

## Support for Ukraine by type

Chile's support for Ukraine, 2022 to August 2026, split by type. The parts add up to the map's figure.

| Military aid | – |
| --- | --- |
| Financial aid (incl. IMF and World Bank share) | €5mof which its share of IMF and World Bank lending: €5m |
| Refugee hosting | €1m |
| Private donations and purchases | −€1m |
| Support for Ukraine (the map's figure) | €5m |

Quality of the split: A No military aid on record outside Kiel's tracker; this does not mean that no military aid was given.

## Trade with Russia before and after

It bought €0.16bn from Russia in 2021 and €18m in 2025 (−89%). It sold €0.52bn to Russia in 2021 and €0.44bn in 2025 (−16%). For Chile: €10m paid above no-war prices, most of it in 2022, 71% of it on gas contracts. These are sales values at each year's prices; the totals count what the seller kept on them.

## Sanctions on Russia

We found no sanctions of Chile's own against Russia (checked 27 October 2026). This says nothing about whether firms there follow other countries' sanctions. Russia's list of “unfriendly” states does not name Chile. Checked 27 October 2026.

## The cost of switching away from Russian energy

Replacing Russian energy cost it about €57m extra from 2022 (0.02% of one year's GDP). This is not in the totals: shown for information.

## Compared with its neighbours and groups

In the map's ranking: number 32 of 32 economies toward Ukraine, as a share of GDP.

## Questions

### Is Chile helping Russia?

In money terms the net is +0.04% of one year's GDP (likely <0.01% to 0.10% toward Ukraine; very likely · 99%). Chance toward Ukraine: 99%; 100% of the other method choices agree. Russia kept €102m (0.03% of GDP) less than without the war, mostly less Russian crude in fuel bought from refiners elsewhere (€89m of €102m). The number counts money: weapons at their money value; votes, diplomacy and intent are not in it.

### How much has Chile given to Ukraine?

Almost nothing that can be measured: €5m since 2022 (<0.01% of one year's GDP).

### How does Chile compare with its neighbours?

The net as a share of one year's GDP: Bolivia +0.44%, Peru +0.07%, Argentina +0.05%, Chile +0.04%. In the map's ranking: number 32 of 32 economies toward Ukraine, as a share of GDP.

### Where do the numbers for Chile come from?

The map's panel lists every one, with its documents.

### Does Chile have sanctions on Russia?

We found no sanctions of Chile's own against Russia (checked 27 October 2026). This says nothing about whether firms there follow other countries' sanctions. Russia's list of “unfriendly” states does not name Chile.
