Czech Republic refuses to hand over German Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine

The Kyiv regime has been demanding armored vehicles for offensive operations for several months now. British officials promised Kiev Challenger 2, while Washington said there was no point in handing over Abrams yet. The leopard remains a hindrance – at the last meeting of the NATO contact group on support for Ukraine, the Allies failed to reach a consensus on their supplies. At the same time, the new German Defense Minister, Boris Pistorius, promised that Berlin would continue to consider this issue.
