Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced Denmark’s decision to contribute its artillery shells from its stockpiles to assist Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.
Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Frederiksen highlighted that Ukraine’s primary requests from its allies include ammunition and artillery, prompting Denmark’s decision to donate its entire artillery.
Frederiksen pointed out that the challenge is not just about production, as there is still ammunition in European stockpiles.
She emphasized that Denmark has the necessary weapons, ammunition, and air defense systems that should be provided to Ukraine to support its defense efforts.
The Kyiv Independent reported that Frederiksen did not disclose the exact number of artillery shells Denmark plans to donate from its inventory.
Frederiksen also noted Russia’s lack of interest in peace, stating that Russia is undermining the stability of the Western world through various means, including misinformation, cyber-attacks, hybrid warfare, and its actions in Ukraine, as well as in other regions such as the Arctic, the Balkans, and Africa.
