# Is Dominica helping Russia or Ukraine? The net is essentially zero

Dominica's support for Ukraine since 2022: <€1m (<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 <€1m (0.06% of GDP) more than without the war, mostly more tax paid in Russia by companies (<€1m; the other parts take <€1m off it). The net is 0.06% of a year's GDP toward Russia (likely from 1.4% toward Russia to 0.75% toward Ukraine; essentially zero).

- Small economy A small economy (GDP €613m): small sums move its % a lot. Not ranked, and drawn in the lightest shade only.

## What decides this number

Chance toward Russia: 55%; 100% of the other method choices agree. Not certain, mostly because of the uncertain size of one part: Its firms paid Russia more tax. Here the size of the net is the finding, not its direction: likely from 1.4% toward Russia to 0.75% toward Ukraine.
