“An interesting Estonian proposal regarding the general purchase of ammunition for Ukraine in the EU.
The Estonian proposal was part of a broad discussion, which came down to the fact that Ukraine needs ammunition, ”Rau said, quoted by RIA Novosti.
It will take time to launch European products, at least months, if not years, the minister noted.
“Therefore, the acquisition of the necessary, primarily ammunition, outside the EU is being discussed.
There are also few such sources,” he added.
According to NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, the consumption of ammunition by the Ukrainian army exceeds the volume of their production in Western countries.
