Handelsblatt: Berlin is considering the form of its participation in the “tank alliance” for Kyiv
[ad_1]
The German authorities are now considering how Berlin could take part in the so-called tank alliance for Kyiv, the Handelsblatt newspaper reports on its website.
Sources of the publication said that one of the options being considered is to give the Leopards to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which were intended for the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
However, in order for Ukraine to receive at least 15 tanks from Germany, it will still not be possible to avoid a contribution from the Ministry of Defense, the publication indicates.
Previously, the head of the German arms manufacturer Rheinmetall, Armin Papperger, said that Germany will be able to deliver its Leopards to Ukraine no earlier than next year from the moment the decision is made.
