“I dare say that it would be possible to send Ukraine two-to-2.5 million shells this year, if the funding were available,” Pevkur said.
That is a pretty big ‘IF’
Time is of the essence. Some of the potential ammo-sellers are willing to take money from Ukraine’s allies or from Russia. First come, first served. “There’s a bit of a race against time to see who can secure them first,” Pevkur said.
Awesome , who do we write the cheque out to
I like the fact they’re not donating them, like they should, but allowing either the USA or Britain to purchase them. Something’s wrong with this picture
Awesome, now what’s delivery timeline? Shells promise and shells delivered are 2 different things…
“Estonia Just Found Another Million Shells For Ukraine. And now, for months, Reddit will have articles about Estonian awaiting of needed money.”
Someone is going to get very rich off of this.
Pevkur said the shells include NATO-standard 155-millimeter rounds as well as Soviet-standard 152-millimeter rounds and Grad rockets, implying the Estonians are, in part, looking to countries in Eastern Europe and the Balkans. African countries might also be candidates. The Czech initiative reportedly sourced ammo from South Korea, South Africa and Turkey.
