    Meeting in Brussels Signifies a Turning Point for Allies Arming Ukraine


    Defense officials responsible for purchasing weapons for more than 40 nations discussed how to ramp up production for a potentially years-long war.

    The United States and its allies believe that the fighting in Ukraine will last years, military officials from more than 40 countries gathered at NATO’s headquarters in Brussels on Wednesday to discuss how their governments can ramp up the production of arms and ammunition.

    The top priority for the discussions was increasing ammunition for howitzers and rocket artillery eg the Pentagon would purchase 250,000 additional 155-millimeter shells for Ukraine from several companies around the world, and Douglas R. Bush, the Army’s top acquisition official, said those projectiles were coming from five countries.
