According to Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba, this is most likely due not to a lack of political will in European countries, but to a lack of production capacity.
The European Union will not be able to supply 1 million ammunition to Ukraine until March 2024. This was stated by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dmitry Kuleba during the telethon.
According to him, this situation is most likely not due to a lack of political will among European countries. The truth is that EU countries do not have enough production capacity, factories and warehouses to deliver on this promise. There are also problems of a bureaucratic nature.
“The European Union is working to eliminate these problems, and that is why, when I was in Berlin, I called on the European Union to develop a holistic policy in the field of defense industry… But we need it soon, we need more,” Kuleba said.
He said that Ukraine is ahead of Europe today. For this reason, a completely new quality of work is needed in the defense industry of EU member countries.
Let’s remember, on November 10, Bloomberg reported that the European Union would not be able to provide 1 million ammunition to Ukraine until March 2024. According to journalists, the European Union promised to provide Ukraine with one million artillery ammunition by March 2024, but reported that it would most likely not be able to cope with this task.
The publication stated that EU officials informed member states that the bloc would not fulfill the obligation it had previously undertaken. This will complicate Ukraine’s efforts to keep pace with Russia in its efforts to increase missile production and win North Korea’s support.
EU High Representative Josep Borrell reportedly said that the military support provided to Ukraine by the EU reached 27 billion euros. He believes that events in the Middle East and Russia’s war against Ukraine are “completely different conflicts in nature.”
