On Saturday, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said Ukraine needs 1,000 artillery shells daily in Bakhmut. Thus the EU must speed up ammunition deliveries.

Borrell said Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba reminded EU peers in Stockholm that Kyiv needed additional support to resist Russia’s incursion.

Borrell said EU members had to use their stocks and overcome logistical issues to speed up supplies.

In March, EU ministers approved a 2-billion-euro ($2.20 billion) proposal to equip Ukraine with 1 million rounds of artillery ammunition and missiles over 12 months.

EU countries will supply shells from their inventories and place new orders.

“Ukraine needs about 1,000 shells of artillery per day,” Borrell told reporters following the meeting.

“Because the Russians are bombing from far away,” Borrell claimed Ukraine needed long-range ammunition.

“The Ukrainians must have the capacity to reach… the same range.”

Before the conference, Kuleba claimed long-range artillery ammunition would be discussed.

Germany pledged 2.7 billion euros in military help to Ukraine on Saturday.
