The President of Poland officially announced the transfer of 10 Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine

Poland announced the gratuitous delivery of 10 Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine.

The Polish authorities decided to provide Ukraine with a batch of 10 Leopard 2A4 tanks free of charge. The latter will be enough to form a full-fledged company, however, in all likelihood, the very fact of the transfer of tanks to Ukraine indicates that Poland intends to initiate the process of mass supply of weapons by other countries, including Germany, Finland, Sweden, etc.

During a meeting between the leaders of Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine, Polish President Andrzej Duda officially announced that Poland would provide Ukraine with a company of Leopard 2 tanks. The latter will be used in Ukraine for the first time, however, experts note that in reality ten NATO-style combat vehicles are unlikely seriously change the situation.

“Both in Ukraine and in Poland they are well aware that 10 tanks will not change the situation at all. Even a hundred tanks will not change it, although the latter are definitely better than the T-55, T-64 and T-72 that Ukraine has. However, Warsaw is trying to ensure that the supply of these vehicles is also organized by other countries, and potentially we can talk about 300-400 combat vehicles, which can already pose a very serious threat ", - the expert marks.

When exactly the transfer of Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine will take place is unknown, however, according to experts, this is unlikely to happen before March of this year.
