Ukraine Ambassador to Prague: Czech initiative works

More than a third of the expected 500,000 rounds of ammunition, scheduled for delivery by the end of the year under a Czech initiative, has already reached Ukraine, according to Ukrainian Ambassador Vasyl Zvaryč. In an interview with the Czech Press Agency (ČTK), Zvaryč said he had no information about issues with the ammunition, contrary to recent reports from the German newspaper Handelsblatt. Ukraine is also in talks with the Czech Ministry of Defence to expand the initiative, which sources artillery ammunition for Ukraine from countries both within and outside the EU.
