But they want the money upfront!
The Czech Republic has found about 800,000 artillery shells of NATO and Soviet-era caliber that can be shipped to Ukraine in a few weeks.
However, for this, funding must be secured quickly.
Czech President Petr Pavel stated this during a debate at the Munich Security Conference.
According to the Czech President, the country’s representatives managed to find about 500,000 155-mm artillery shells and 300,000 122-mm shells abroad.
He added that they could be transported to Ukraine in a matter of weeks if funding is secured quickly.

However, he did not specify in which countries these hundreds of thousands of artillery munitions, which Ukraine needs to repel Russian aggression, are located.
The Czech President also added that the Czech Republic is currently searching for weapons and equipment around the world and is working with NATO partners in this field.
The Czech Republic previously offered the European Union to purchase artillery ammunition for Ukraine outside its borders.
