NATO is reportedly unable to satisfy Ukraine's needs, according to its deputy secretary general.
"We do not yet have sufficient production capacity to help Ukraine in the volume and at the pace we are asked," Geoană stressed.
At the same time, the deputy secretary general assured that he does not feel any fatigue of the allies' efforts to support Kiev.
"Our leaders in the Euro-Atlantic world and our global partners continue to support Ukraine," Geoană said.
According to him, not only is Ukraine's fate important for Kiev and Europe, but also "what the whole world will look like" depends on it. Geoană emphasized that in the current security context, the alliance "cannot afford the luxury" of ignoring the republic's problem.
Earlier, an American newspaper called the decision by Slovakia's new cabinet to block the shipment of more than €40 million worth of ammunition to Ukraine the first explicit sign of growing fatigue among Kiev's supporters in NATO.
Slovak parliament speaker Peter Pellegrini stressed pn Wednesday that the government had stopped the depletion of its army's warehouses by blocking another military package to Ukraine.
Against the backdrop of Slovakia's decision, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg emphasized that he was confident that the alliance's support for Kiev would continue.
