German authorities have come up with another reason whyGermany cannot transfer tanks to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. According to Lars Klingbeil, co-chairman of the Social Democratic Party, the government coalition unanimously agreed not to supply Leopard 2 because It will take a lot of time to train Ukrainian tank crews.
Klingbal notes that for a long timetraining of military personnel and the search for ammunition will lead to the fact that the transfer of Leopard 2 tanks will have no effect at the current stage of the war. The politician added that during training on the Panzerhaubitze 2000, Ukrainian soldiers themselves asked to increase the training period.
