NATO head Jens Stoltenberg warned that Ukraine is running out of ammunition, allowing Russia to push Kyiv’s forces back. Stoltenberg urged allies to provide Ukraine with the necessary support.
Military aid from the US is currently held up in Congress, hindering Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. Stoltenberg emphasized the need for quick action, citing real consequences on the battlefield.
Ukrainian and Western officials acknowledge that Kyiv’s forces are being outgunned by Russia. Despite efforts to increase production of ammunition and arms in Europe, output has not met promises made to Ukraine.
Stoltenberg called for increased investment in the defense industry and for governments to agree on contracts to scale up production. The EU has launched initiatives to boost output, but has not met previous commitments to Ukraine.
