Poland will pass the LEOPARD tanks - Duda

According to Polish President Andrzej Duda, his country is ready to hand over several Leopard 2 tanks of those 240 who are in service with countries. Poland will transmit LOOPARD tanks to Ukraine as limited to the international coalition. This was stated by Polish President Andrzej Duda in Lviv at a meeting with the leader of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky and Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda on Wednesday, January 11. "The LEOPARD company will be transferred to the international coalition.

We have decided that such support will be provided to Ukraine on the Polish side," Duda said. In addition, Duda spoke during his visit to Lviv with his Ukrainian and Lithuanian colleagues on Ukraine's military support and our country's integration into the EU and NATO. It should be noted that there are 240 Leopard tanks in Poland.

This means that Ukraine will receive at least 10 tanks (the number of tank company in the Armed Forces), but not more than 14 of these military vehicles (this is the number of tanks enters one company in NATO member countries). We will remind, on January 9 it became known that Poland can transfer to Ukraine the symbolic number of Leopard tanks.

According to the adviser to the Polish President Jacob Kumoh, the information about the supply of all Polish tanks Leopard 2 is absurd to Ukraine, since Warsaw does not intend to act independently in military assistance. Focus also wrote that in Germany they criticized France for the promise to put tanks to Ukraine.
