In reversal, US poised to approve Abrams tanks for Ukraine

It’s also unknown how many tanks would be approved.

Ukrainian leaders have been urgently requesting tanks, but Germany had resisted mounting pressure either to supply its own tanks or clear the way for other countries, such as Poland, to send from from their own stocks. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the deployment of Western tanks would trigger “unambiguously negative” consequences.

U.S. and German officials have given mixed signals about whether the U.S. and German decisions are linked, and whether Berlin was hesitant to send its tanks unless the U.S. sent Abrams.

Just send them cash...u know u wanna

Media spends more time on TaylorSwift tickets than start of WWIII What if $14 million worth of tanks, taken out with $10k drones? Feels like the Bismarck Brand new battleship BUT obsolete Destroyed because as fast as it was, massive ship foiled by single aircraft & 1 torpedo.

Gotta keep the war going

This is so good news for me, as a Ukrainian 🇺🇦 !

Those tanks hold up to 500 gallons of fuel. Exxon, Chevron, Oxy stocks going 🚀

It's useless to send tens of tanks to Zelenskyy and still can't defeat Russia. It would be more biting to send hundreds of tanks with NATO troops, thereby spurring Russia to send TNW missiles/bombs on the scale of Hiroshima. 'Abrams tanks'

__lulabells What if the Chinese stole the abrams technology and Gave it to the Russians?

Business is doing good

Just none of the new ones This is why I loved going to the AUSA conventions as a Reservist. They had this kinda stuff on display.

Will be interesting to see the Russian response. Guaranteed they will threaten nukes.

Well you yanks have been wanting war with Russia for decades now. I think your about to get your wish! Tell me will woman and the LBGT community be included in the draft this time? Or just the poor kids again?

Looks to have been everyone else's fault, yet again...?

USA is scared here. Hence delivery could take months or years. It would absolutely destroy their omnipotent images when the Russian shot these Abrams tanks.

USA is being forced here by the Germans who should insist real deliveries as precedent condition. USA is scared here. It would absolutely destroy their omnipotent images when the Russian shot these Abrams tanks.

Now, that's leadership. NATO needs to preserve unity while Ukraine wins for the alliance's sake. Many had expected Germany to assume this role when it came to tanks in a European war. A slow start? Well, the Abrams won't be landing soon anyway.

WTF world war 3

US proxy war with Russia Just what America needs during a massive economic recession.

This is a very good move, but it will add complexity to the logistics since these tanks use jet fuel.

I had to re-read this article. I thought they said they were sending Stacey Abrams to Ukraine. Darn it

You trying for Afghanistan 2.0

War is Peace! $$$

We get them back or we just going to leave them there after the war?

Good give Ukraine everything they need to end Putin and his terrorist paid fighters

Haha, then Putin is gonna double down in destroying these things to humiliate us and in the end if the day, Ukrainian men die.

I wonder if Ukraine decides to capitulate, what will happen with all these tanks...

How much influence does defense contractors have? Shit

It's only in times like these. That I'm happy I don't have children of my own, to be drafted for the upcoming Biden/RNC WW3. *Don't believe me? ... check out the Doomsday clock! JustSaying BeCarefulWhoYouVoteFor
