The Czech Republic has reported the scale of its future ammunition delivery to Ukraine.

Jan Lipavský, Czech Foreign Minister announced this to České noviny.

“In July and August, we will send 100,000 additional rounds of ammunition. We are now searching for money to buy more ammunition to continue the initiative in 2025. This year, we could deliver up to 800,000 rounds of ammunition if we had the money,” Jan Lipavský said as he elaborated on Czechia’s plans.

Czechia’s chief diplomat also said that 15 out of the 18 countries that joined the Ukraine ammunition initiative have already supported it not only with words but funds.

According to Lipavský, Russia hasn’t given up the idea of compromising the initiative, hence, Czechia keeps the details discreet as well as the countries supplying the ammunition to Ukraine via the Czech Republic.
