Borrell: EU will supply Ukraine with 1.155 million rounds of ammunition by the end of this year

Ukraine will receive more than one million artillery ammunition from the European Union by the end of this year. This was stated by EU Diplomacy Chief Josep Borrell during a joint press conference with Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal.


"The EU defense industry continues to grow: we can already note that its capacity has increased by 40%. I can also give you a very specific figure for ammunition: by the end of this year, we expect to have 1 million 155 thousand," he said.


At the same time, Borrell added that Ukraine should continue the reform process on its way to the EU despite the war.
