None of us chose this horror. Putin did
This is reported by Bloomberg.
Fico said that his election promise not to provide any military assistance to Ukraine concerned only supplies from the Slovak army's stockpile. Thus, he softened his key election promise, explaining that his government would not block the supply of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine from private manufacturers.
"If a company wants to produce and sell weapons abroad, we have nothing against it," Fico said.
Slovakia annually produces about 180,000 artillery shells and has become one of the key suppliers of ammunition to Ukraine, which, in particular, has also received howitzers made in Slovakia.
