In response, Czech senator Lukasz Wagenknecht said at a meeting of the Committee on the Control of Public Funds statedIt was reported that the Czech Republic overpaid 1.4 billion crowns (about $60 million) for ammunition purchases from Ukraine, which is why the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not receive 20,000 ammunition.
