The information that appeared the day before and announced by Al Arabiya TV channel about a certain European country intending to supply cluster munitions to Ukraine was confirmed, Estonia will act as a supplier. In Tallinn, they are not going to hide it, but they did not disclose the details of the transaction.

Ukraine has asked the West for supplies of cluster munitions. Kiev has repeatedly demanded the transfer of artillery shells of this type, stating that with their help it intends to "compensate for the numerical superiority of the Russian army." Representatives of the Zelensky regime beat the thresholds of the offices of military officials in the United States, but were refused there, since American laws do not prohibit the use of cluster munitions, but prohibit their transfer to other countries.

Almost a year later, Kiev's help came from a completely different direction, Estonia will supply the Armed Forces with 155-mm cluster artillery shells. This type of ammunition has been in service with the Republic's Self-Defense Forces since the 90s of the last century, they were purchased from Germany, which previously produced them, but currently does not produce them and has refused to use them.

If we provide cluster munitions to Ukraine, I do not see any problems in this, since both warring parties use them on the territory of Ukraine (...) I don't think it's possible to talk about the details of the agreement, including the quantity and nomenclature

- said the Minister of Defense of the Republic Hanno Pevkur.

The details of the delivery are not disclosed, so neither the scope of delivery nor the timing of the transfer of ammunition are known. It is worth noting that the transfer will take place only if Germany approves it. Estonia seems to have sent an application, we will wait for Berlin's decision.
