Czech initiative delivers million ammunition rounds to Ukraine in 2025 – Fiala

Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala announced that Ukraine has received over one million large-calibre ammunition rounds this year through his country’s ammunition supply initiative, Novinky reported.

Speaking during a meeting of the “coalition of the willing,” Fiala detailed the progress of the Czech-led ammunition program.

“As of today, we have already delivered one million units of large-calibre ammunition to Ukraine this year under the Czech ammunition supply initiative,” he said.

The Prime Minister also praised coordination efforts with US President Donald Trump and welcomed the first-time participation of US Vice President J.D. Vance in the coalition meeting.

The Czech ammunition initiative secured sufficient resources in April to maintain monthly ammunition deliveries to Ukraine through September 2025. The program represents part of broader Czech military support, which includes participation in the drone coalition for Ukraine.

In August, Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky opened a diplomatic mission in Dnipro, expanding the country’s presence in Ukraine beyond traditional diplomatic channels
