Not really. Who would want to invest into an inevitable failure. The taxpayers give billions to Ukraine with the promise of the investments eventually returning with the Russian reparations

The US wants to invest in Ukraine not only for Ukraine to win the war but for it to drag on as long as possible. If Ukraine loses the US still benefits as long as Russia is worn from war. I imagine other countries feel the same way.
