Kiev attacks Berlin: «Its indecision on the supply of tanks kills the Ukrainians»
Ukraine asks for Leopard tanks, Germany is hesitantEvery day of delay on the delivery of Leopard tanks "means death for the Ukrainians" . Mykhailo Podolyak expresses all the disappointment of Kiev for the lack of green light for the coveted German tanks, deemed necessary to turn the tide of the war.
"Indecision is killing more and more people," thundered President Zelensky's adviser, asking the West - that is, Berlin but also the United States - to "think fast."
'What else is there to check, Herr Pistorius? You deliver! It is a pity that the governing coalition of Germany is exposing itself like this," urged Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister and former Ambassador to Germany Andriy Melnik addressing the German Defense Minister after the black smoke over the supply of Leopards at the contact group meeting in Ramstein.
At this point, with the second year of the war just around the corner, even the Pentagon seems to be approaching the German line of caution. Caution that from Washington translates into the advice to Kiev to wait to launch its counter-offensive against Russia , at least until the latest package of US weapons is available and the training of Ukrainian soldiers is completed.
Even on the Russian front there is no sign of truce: " Victory will be ours, as in 1812 and 1945 against Napoleon and Hitler ," said the deputy president of the Security Council Dmitri Medvedev.
«The supply of offensive weapons to Kiev would lead to a global disaster» , is instead the warning of the speaker of the Duma Viacheslav Volodin. "If Washington and NATO countries send Ukraine weapons to be used to attack peaceful cities or to try to occupy our lands, a threat that has been made, this would provoke a reaction with the use of even more powerful weapons."
On the ground finally the blood continues to flow. The conflict is in a stalemate, according to British intelligence, while Moscow has claimed to have taken up more advantageous positions following an offensive in Zaporizhzhia .
