Ministry of Defence reaction to the fake news about Indian grenades being sent to Ukraine

In recent weeks, some Slovenian and foreign media have published fake news that the Republic of Slovenia was involved in sending 155 mm grenades purchased in India to Ukraine.

Each time this false news appeared, we denied it and explained that the Ministry of Defence or the Republic of Slovenia had never purchased 155 mm grenades in India, nor had it participated in the transfer or resale of such ammunition to other countries.

Such misleading reporting is an attempt both to damage the Republic of Slovenia and to discredit its international role, since it has become a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council.
