Pressure mounts on Berlin to send Kyiv Leopard tanks, a powerful defence against Russian forces.

The Leopard tank is designed to compete with the Russian tanks being used in the invasion

"We had a frank discussion on Leopards 2. To be continued," Oleksii Reznikov said after meeting Western allies.The meeting at Ramstein Air Base in Germany did bring an agreement to supply more armoured vehicles, air defence systems and ammunition. "Every day we make it more obvious that there is no alternative, that a decision about tanks must be made."

Mr Pistorius said Berlin was prepared to move quickly if there was consensus among allies, though he could not say when a decision on the tanks might be made.Ukraine's Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov with Kyiv's US and German allies in RamsteinGermany has found itself in this standoff due to several factors including international diplomacy and the legacy of World War Two.

But Germany is reluctant to send Leopards unless they are part of a wider Nato package that preferably includes America's powerful M1 Abrams tanks. The US has rejected this, saying the Abrams tanks are impractical for Ukraine's forces because they are difficult and expensive to maintain.

Germans want an end to this stupid proxy war. The UK can send thousand tanks if they think they want the war to continue. The poseidon torpedo will soon be sinking your nation UK to the bottom of the ocean, continue fueling this war.

People forgetting there's a bit of history between Germany and Russia.

No tanks for Ukraine

Why does Germany have to allow or give tanks? Why are western government pushing this war, instead of pushing peace. Is it, the Russians are coming mentality. Or are we just cucks of the USA...

U.K. tanks are Sooooooo Bad ( Like our Hard to miss , constantly breaking down £3 billion each , no planes Aircraft Carriers) Tank crews are deafened. “It’s like driving in a washing machine “ Favourite new PM Defence Minister Ben (MP RecordHighest Expenses Claims) Wallace.

The facts, if you include its contributions to the EU budget Germany is the largest single contributer of financial aid to Ukraine, has stopped the import of Russian energy and is looking after over a million Ukrainen refugees.

Come on Germany, do the right thing.

Peace

I see the news outlets are shying away from reporting what exactly went on at Leeds maternity hospital yesterday. Even the police are calling the arresting of a male with a gun and viable device (bomb) as an isolated incident! Despicable reporting!

BBC is a Hinduphobia and they conspire against common Hindus of India ...so they don't have any moral grounds to be called as a media outlet rather a hatred propaganda activist working against the oldest civilization

From the day one Germany is not keen or interested in UkraineRussianWar ,don't want any trouble with Russia but somehow they stuck with NATO to support Zelensky !!. Let's see when this War ends & who benefits !! EUparliament

A meeting in Germany approves more arms for Ukraine, but no Leopard tanksMany Germans favour sending these battle vehicles to Ukraine, polls suggest. So why is Olaf Scholz’s government stalling? The most reliable poll is the one that chose Olaf Scholz’s government. Could it be that many more don’t favour sending them ? He thinks he can do business with Russia when Putin is defeated.
