Estonia found an opportunity to purchase another batch of ammunition for the Ukrainian army worth several billion euros.

According to Estonian Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur, Estonia has the opportunity to purchase projectiles and missiles worth two to three billion euros for the Ukrainian army. However, this will be possible if the Allies provide funds.

Taking into account the cost of the projectiles, we can be talking about approximately one million projectiles and "Grad" missiles.

Pevkur said that he had already talked about such a possibility at the meeting of "Ramstein", which took place on March 19. According to him, Estonia could get these ammunition mainly from non-European countries.

"Unfortunately, I cannot clarify. In many cases, the seller himself does not want this to be known. Since the orders include both 155 mm and 152 mm shells, Russia is also actively looking for suppliers worldwide through Belarus. There is kind of a race against time to see who can secure them first," he said.

He also explained that this idea of Estonia is separate from the initiative of the European Union to provide Ukraine with a million shells.
