Politico: a number of countries blocked the EU’s decision to purchase shells to Ukraine outside the bloc. “But France, Greece and Cyprus opposed these efforts,” the publication said.
Earlier, EU diplomacy chief Josep Borrell said that the EU supports the idea of organizing cooperation between the European and Ukrainian defense industries for the further production of ammunition in Ukraine. The newspaper Politico writes about this, citing sources. “Some countries proposed allowing the use of European funds to purchase. shells not produced in the EU for the Ukrainian Armed Forces as emergency assistance.”
