According to him, the supply of ammunition for the Ukrainian military will take place according to the estimated pace in the coming months.
Fiala also noted that the Czech Republic regularly provides hundreds of thousands of large calibers to Ukraine to Ukraine. "It is important that our assistance does not end there. Currently, 15 countries are involved in the Czech initiative, and we are actively working on attracting other countries and ensuring continued support next year," he said.
