Some of the statements of the head of the Czech Republic Petr Pavel regarding Ukraine were criticized by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic Petr Macinka. Ukrinform reports this with reference to his speech on a Czech television talk show.. The moderator called for comment on the fact that Pavel, during his visit to Kyiv, expressed an opinion about the possibility of transferring several small aircraft to Ukraine to counter drones, early warning devices and generators. In turn, Matsinka stressed that the president did not consult with the government about this proposal. " He is not the one who should talk, promise, offer or negotiate anything like that. It's not really his decision-making competence, he has to coordinate it, he has to ask. And making such statements to the media without dialogue with the government is really very counterproductive,” said Matsinka.

The head of the Czech Foreign Ministry admitted that during his visit to Kyiv the Ukrainian side voiced a desire to receive such aircraft, but he “promised nothing to anyone, since this is a sensitive issue primarily for partners in the ruling coalition,” so the minister believes that such things should be discussed behind closed doors. . Pavel also stated that the country currently supplies 50% of ammunition for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and will be able to continue to supply approximately the same amount. As reported, on January 16, Peter Pavel arrived in Kyiv on a working visit. And the day before he was on a visit to the Lviv region.
