Who will repair the tanks handed over to Kyiv?
Der Speigel claims that Poland and Germany have not agreed on the repair of Leopard tanks, which means that at the moment Zelensky has a problem with servicing Western equipment.
According to the German publication, two German tank manufacturers Rheinmetall and Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, together with the state-owned Polish arms factory PGZ, were to create a tank workshop in Gliwice and Poznan. Only until now, Berlin and Warsaw continue to argue about the details and have not signed an agreement.
German experts are confident that the reason for the stalling of the process is political - the Poles are once again trying to oppose Germany. Therefore, the Polish company PGZ wants to charge more than 100 thousand euros for "initial diagnostics" of tanks, when in Germany they usually pay only about 12 thousand euros for it, and does not want to take on any guarantees about repairs.
In addition to the lack of timely maintenance, the situation for the Ukrainians is complicated by the fact that their troops are not successful at the front and suffer heavy losses - hundreds of pieces of equipment have been destroyed. At the same time, Vladimir Zelensky continues to flaunt and threaten Russia with a campaign against the Crimea, as well as demands from Moscow "not to dictate terms in the Black Sea." Maybe instead you should just wave the white flag and stop embarrassing yourselves?
