    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Mette Frederiksen appealed to other European nations to do more to help Ukraine in its fight against Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invading forces.

    “This is not only a question about production, because we have weapons, we have ammunition, we have air defense that we don’t have to use ourself at the moment, that we should deliver to Ukraine.”

    It comes as Ukrainian forces withdrew from the key eastern town of Avdiivka amid severe munitions shortages.

    The Danish announcement will come as particularly welcome news in Ukraine as its military has been starved of artillery shells, forcing it to scale back some operations, Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi told Reuters in December.

    Meanwhile, in more positive news to alleviate the ammo famine, the Czech Republic says it could supply 800,000 shells to the Ukrainian military.

    The EU is taking leadership and responsibility in support for Ukraine; we know what is at stake," President of the European Council Charles Michel said at the time, per Reuters.
