Sikorski: Poland to provide logistic support for Czech shells-for-Ukraine plan 

Poland will support the Czech initiative to provide ammunition for Ukraine not only financially, but also logistically, Polish Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said at the V4 meeting in Prague on Thursday. On the other hand, the Slovak chief of diplomacy Juraj Blanár and Hungarian minister Péter Szijjártó said they would not back the plan and would not supply any weapons to Ukraine.

Some 18 countries – some of whom are not members of the bloc – have already pledged to support the plan to supply the Kyiv government with around 800,000 artillery shells sourced outside the EU or NATO.
