Please research the Marshall plan, and how the UK finished paying it off a few years ago.
Nation rebuilding for the victor doesn’t work like you think it does.

any chance that you can give a quick TLDR? was it a no-interest loan? still, UK has a lot more of GDP or govt budget than Ukraine (1T vs 40B). ukraine exports mostly steel (they can probably forget about that now) and agri stuff (mostly intact but with xx % losses).

Out of the 13B allocated to the Marshall Plan, only 1.2B were loans. Everything else were grants.
Russia has 300B seized by Western institutions. Another source of probable funding.
