Andrzej Duda said last week that Poland is ready to transfer offensive weapons to Ukraine — Leopard tanks, as part of a partnership agreement. According to The Financial Times, the UK joined the decision of its NATO partner and is also ready to send the Challenger 2 to Ukraine. According to the minister of defence of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov, the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine need about 2 weeks to master the technique of controlling this equipment. Earlier, about the readiness to transfer Leopards said Spain.
"We are accelerating our support for Ukraine. It is the help of next-generation military technology that will help win this war. It is obvious that battle tanks can change the rules of the game for Ukrainians," Rishi Sunak.
The UK PM has already instructed Wen Wallace to handle the transfer of modern military equipment that will help Ukraine win the war sooner.
It is also known that the dispatch of shells and other armoured infantry vehicles is being prepared — Bradley tank killers from the USA and AMX 10-RC from France. The Ministry of defence is ready for transfer within 2 months.
"This is the next step by the administration to provide something that they have been reluctant to do in the past, so this hopefully signals recognition by the administration that the Russians really cannot escalate each time we provide a new capability," Ben Hodges said.
