The state-owned enterprises of the defence industry will not produce ammunition and other special products for Ukraine, Economy Minister Nikola Stoyanov told the National Assembly. In his words, the country will be supplied only with weapons from the reserve. However, the minister could not specify the amount of the military aid.
The decision to send weapons to Ukraine was taken a month ago by the National Assembly, and the caretaker cabinet  specified they would be ammunition and small arms.
