This was stated by Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka at a briefing with his Ukrainian counterpart Andriy Sybiga.
According to Macinka, during the meeting, he and Sybiga also discussed the supply of necessary military ammunition to Ukraine and an invitation to Czech businesses to participate in these supplies.
The Czech minister also commented on the peace process that could end the war in Ukraine, in particular, confirming that he had been informed about the negotiations between Ukraine and the United States.
In 2024, the Czech Republic organized an initiative to purchase shells for Ukraine. A large number of Western countries provided funds for this. Thanks to the Czech Republic, Ukraine began to receive large quantities of ammunition, primarily for artillery.
