Germany to provide Ukraine with Leopard tanks after intense pressure

GERMANY WILL PROVIDE Ukraine with Leopard tanks, national media reported today, following months of intense pressure on Berlin to supply the armaments much sought after by Kyiv to repel Russian troops.

Citing unnamed government sources, rolling news channel NTV said Germany would hand over a company of Leopard 2 A6 tanks.Separately, Spiegel Online said the tanks would come from the Bundeswehr’s own stocks, while other deliveries further down the line may stem from industry stocks.Earlier today, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said he encouraged allies to start training Ukrainian forces on using the tanks.

A senior US lawmaker told AFP last week that Scholz had told US congressmen that Germany will supply the battle tanks to Ukraine if the United States also sent tanks.
