Ukraine using more munitions than Nato producing: Stoltenberg

BRUSSELS - Nato needs “to ramp up production” of ammunition as Ukraine’s rate of usage is far outstripping current capacities and draining stockpiles, the defence alliance’s chief Jens Stoltenberg said Monday.

Mr Stoltenberg admitted that the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation was facing a “problem” as current waiting times for large-calibre ammunition have grown from 12 to 28 months. Mr Stoltenberg said there was an ongoing discussion among allies about Ukraine’s demands for modern fighter jets to be sent to the battlefield.
