EU approves massive expansion of artillery shell production
EU member states have approved a project
that envisages expanding the production of artillery
shells to one million units per annum, the Swedish Presidency of the
Council of the EU announced on Twitter on June 23.
The approval of the Act in Support of Ammunition Production (ASAP) was confirmed.
According to the announcement, this decision will significantly boost production capabilities within the EU for manufacturing ammunition.
“It will facilitate the ramp-up of the EU’s ammunition production capacity, allowing its defense industry to better support Ukrainian and Member States’ armed forces,” the message said.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
