Source: Sikorski in an interview with European Pravda in Kyiv Details: Sikorski was asked about media reports that Poland, despite its promises, has not yet contributed funds to the Czech-initiated procurement of artillery shells for Ukraine worldwide. 

He confirmed this fact and explained that there have been temporary formal obstacles.

Quote: "There is a political decision to contribute, if memory serves, 50 million this year and another 50 million next year, and there are some technical and administrative and legal issues to do with government agency for strategic reserves. On this issue, the Foreign Ministry has done what is up to us. I hope my colleagues from other ministries will also make it happen.

It will happen."
