Ukraine will receive the first batches of shells under the Czech initiative in the foreseeable future. It will not take many months to deliver the shells to the Defense Forces. This was stated by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba during a joint press conference with Moldovan Foreign Minister Mihai Popschi, UNN reports .
This week, we will have contacts with our Czech colleagues to present the supply plan in detail and how it will work. We are ready for full cooperation and assistance. According to the preliminary signals we have received, our guys at the front will feel an increase in the supply of shells in the foreseeable future. That is, it will not take many months,
Details
Kuleba emphasized that the Czech initiative is designed to be implemented throughout the year.
That is, the first part, the first shells will start arriving, let me say, in the foreseeable future. And then new batches will continue to arrive throughout the year,
The Foreign Minister also noted that, in addition to the Czech initiative, there are other initiatives, including one that was discussed during a meeting in Vilnius between the ministers of the Baltic states, France, and Ukraine.
I urged to start raising money for it today as well. Because everybody has to remember one thing, every politician in Europe has to remember: it doesn't work in a way that we raised money for the Czech initiative, exhaled and said: well, we did everything, everything is fine. The Czech initiative is good, but not enough. That is why today we have closed the financial issue of the Czech initiative, and tomorrow we should close the financial issues of other similar initiatives. They exist, and we know about them. All that is missing for their realization is a financial resource,
In addition, he said, if, in addition to the Czech initiative, two more are implemented this year, the Russian occupiers in Ukraine will experience "much more significant problems at the front.
That is why we have just thanked everyone for the Czech initiative: Well done, we postpone it, the initiative is working. And now we need to get funding to implement other similar initiatives, and we are already doing that,
Recall
The Czech Republic has found an opportunity to purchase another 200,000 artillery rounds for the Ukrainian Defense Forces from third countries.
