Poland is working to convince European allies to send as many as 100 battle tanks to support Ukraine’s defense efforts against the Russian invasion, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Tuesday that he’s in talks with allies over potentially supplying German-made heavy Leopard tanks to Ukraine, but cautioned that any announcements would have to come in lockstep with others.
The German government is in position to deliver dozens of Leopard tanks for Ukraine, which could significantly boost Kyiv’s capabilities. Twelve other European countries have Leopards in their arsenals, but they need Berlin’s approval before they can transfer the armor.
Germany “should now feel more responsible to support Ukraine,” Morawiecki told Bloomberg Television at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The government in Warsaw wants to “inspire others” to send as many as 100 tanks so “we can make a difference in the battlefield in Ukraine.”
