President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and the Supreme EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrel at a meeting in Kiev paid key attention to the cooperation of Kiev and EU in the field of security, in particular the priority needs of the Ukrainian defense forces and the importance of accelerating the implementation of the EU plan to supply in Ukraine 1 million artillery ammunition.
This was reported by the press service of the President of Ukraine.
It is noted that Borrel assured the Ukrainian leader that 1 million artillery ammunition would be delivered to Ukraine by the end of this year. He noted the importance of continuing the financial support of Ukraine by the European Union.
The head of the Ukrainian state focused on the need to determine Ukraine with a priority area of exports of artillery ammunition and increase the number of orders and contracts for their production by EU members.
“to stop export of artillery ammunition to third EU countries is the only possible decision with modern security challenges,” the President of Ukraine said.
