Germany will participate in the procurement of the Czech-located artillery ammunition. The German MoD told ARD that they want to participate in the financing and cover a “significant part” of the total costs. Talks on this are at a very advanced stage.

It is not yet known how much money Germany will provide and what type of ammunition — 122mm or 155mm — will be financed.

Just one day before the Czech President's announcement, Olaf Scholz announced that Germany would buy 120,000 122mm artillery shells and deliver them to Ukraine this year — presumably for a three-digit million sum.
