Ukraine's allies are gathering for another Ramstein meeting on Friday. The main priorities for the meeting are supplying Ukraine with ATACMS missiles and ammunition, according to Ministry of Defense spokesperson Dmytro Lazutkin.
According to him, today's Ramstein will focus on establishing military aid supply and logistics algorithms.
"It will primarily be about arms supply, providing ammunition of various calibers, primarily 155mm. Also, there will be discussions on ATACMS munitions supply to Ukraine," the spokesperson said.
Lazutkin reminded that ahead of the Ramstein meeting, allies announced new aid packages to Ukraine, namely the US, UK, Denmark, Estonia, and other countries.
"As part of that $1 billion (new aid package from the US - ed.), which is already in operation, speaking of the aid that is coming, there are HIMARS munitions, shells, and Bradley armored vehicles effectively operating in the field," the spokesperson said.
