Poland ‘very Disappointed’ With Germany by Teeaser4(m): 6:19pm On May 24, 2022 |
Polish President Andrzej Duda has accused Berlin of breaching a deal to replace tanks that Warsaw sent to Kiev Germany has failed to supply Poland with battle tanks after Warsaw depleted its own stocks to send heavy equipment to Ukraine, Polish President Andrzej Duda told Germany’s Die Welt newspaper on Tuesday on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos. Poland has “weakened” its own military potential by using its own stocks to supply Kiev with “a large number of tanks,” Duda said, adding that Warsaw had expected support from NATO and Berlin in particular. Most of Poland’s tanks are German-made Leopards, the president explained, adding that Berlin earlier promised to replace military hardware delivered to Ukraine. "Germany promised to deliver these tanks to us. You have not kept that promise. And, frankly, we are very disappointed about this," Duda told the paper. The president also rebuked Berlin for supposedly not doing enough to support Ukraine. First of all, it is Germany itself that should help Ukraine. Ukraine needs this help urgently,” he said, adding that Poland stepped in with heavy equipment deliveries because other nations were reluctant to make such commitments. The president did not clarify how many Polish tanks have been sent to Ukraine and when the deliveries took place. Berlin has so far not commented on Duda’s accusations. Ukraine, which has been locked in a conflict with Moscow since Russia launched its military offensive in late February, has repeatedly asked Western nations for military aid, particularly heavy weaponry. Western powers have supplied Ukraine with small arms, anti-tank and anti-aircraft weaponry, as well as munitions and fuel, but have so far been reluctant to send in heavy equipment such as tanks or aircraft. Berlin previously struck several swap deals with Eastern European nations aimed at supplying weapons to Ukraine. In late April, Germany and Slovenia agreed on a deal that saw Berlin substituting Soviet-made battle tanks Slovenia sent to Kiev. Last week, Germany announced another such swap, this time with the Czech Republic. Prague is now expecting to receive 15 Leopard 2 tanks from German stocks in exchange for tank deliveries to Ukraine.

Polish politicians are behaving like hyenas; first it was for Norway to share its profit from oil/gas sales and now crying about how the Germans are owing you Tanks. You sent over 200 old MBTs to Ukraine and expect New Leopard 2 MBTs from Germany? No one owes you nothing jare! Germany that barely has up to 500 Leopard 2 MBTs after the unification will now offer close to 200 units to stupid and entitled cretins. If I hear! 3 Likes |
