The newly-appointed German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius told reporters on the sidelines of a high-stakes defense meeting at Ramstein Air Base in Germany on Friday that no decision has been made yet regarding sending Leopard tanks to Ukraine.
"The government in Germany has not taken this important decision, not just to first allow other nations like Poland, Finland or Spain or Greece, which do have German battle tanks, to do the same, but also strengthen and create this, as we call it 'Global Tanks Coalition' to help Ukrainian forces to push out the Russians and to start the counteroffensive which will allow us to liberate the occupied territories," Melnyk said.
"After 331 days of brutal war which Russia has been waging against Ukraine, they are still making an inventory of stocks, of Bundeswehr and in the industry, to check whether they have something to send to Ukraine! It is ridiculous," Melnyk told CNN.
