In NATO want to increase the stocks of shells that are exhausted through the war in Ukraine - Reuters

The Alliance stated that if Europe had been fighting with Russia, some countries would end in a few days in some countries. NATO countries plan to significantly expand the stock of ammunition that have become exhausted through Russian aggression against Ukraine and the supply of weapons of Kiev. About it reports Reuters. The report states that many NATO countries did not have sufficient targets of ammunition alliance before the war in Ukraine.

Many officials were convinced that there would be no wars in Europe like that that is happening in Ukraine. Supply of weapons to Ukraine has found serious spills in the efficiency, speed and operation of supply chains. The Ukrainian military can spend up to 10,000 shells a day, which were not ready in NATO. "If Europe had been fighting with Russia, some countries would have ended ammunition in a few days," the European diplomat said.

The NATO official on the rights of anonymity reported to the publication that the Alliance had completed an extraordinary survey of the remaining ammunition reserves. He stated that the inspection found that the allies did not fulfill the goals for the production of ammunition that were set in the Alliance. As a result of the war in Ukraine, ammunition reserves have become even smaller, so NATO countries will have to increase production to bring in stock to the block standards.

"I do not necessarily think that in the next year the level of our stocks will increase significantly. Any additional stocks we will have will be directed to Ukraine," NATO representative said. We will remind, earlier Focus reported that on February 13, several NATO internet resources were active in the hacker attack, and cybersecurity staff found that the Russian group is standing at the attack.
