The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic, Jan Lipavsky, during a joint briefing with his Ukrainian colleague Andrii Sybiga in Kyiv, condemned Russia’s use of medium-range ballistic missiles against Ukraine, calling it an attempt to intimidate the population of Ukraine and Europe.
He emphasized that such actions are an escalation on the part of the Russian leadership, and urged not to succumb to such provocations.
Lipavsky emphasized the importance of strengthening Ukraine’s air defense systems to protect the civilian population from attacks. He also noted that the Czech Republic supports Ukraine’s right to self-defense, including the use of defensive systems against Russian targets. According to the minister, an effective solution is to prevent the possibility of launching missiles, which reduces the risks of damage at all stages.
According to Lipavsky, the Czech Republic will continue to provide support to Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggression, despite its limited resources compared to other allies such as the United States and Germany.
It was previously reported that part of the funds received from the income from Russian assets frozen in the European Union will be used to supply ammunition to Ukraine as part of the Czech initiative to purchase shells for the Armed Forces.
The Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic is preparing to launch a new initiative to supply Ukraine with artillery ammunition for 2025. This time, Czech manufacturers will participate in the initiative.
