Tanks from Spain will arrive in Ukraine in the spring

Margarita Robles announced that Spain will send Leopard to Ukraine in the spring of 2023. She stated that this assistance is the best way to “work for peace and protect the Ukrainian people.”

However, she has not yet indicated the exact number of tanks that Spain will transfer to Ukrainian forces.

How many Spain is ready to give tanks

• On January 26, Margarita Robles announced that the Spanish government was ready to provide Ukraine with its Leopard 2 tanks. She also called on NATO allies who have this equipment in service to do the same.< /li>
• According to Robles, Madrid may transfer 53 Leopard 2 A4 tanks to Ukraine. However, she noted that not all of them, unfortunately, are serviceable.
• The Ministry of Defense will work on their preparation and determine how many of them can be converted, and which are beyond repair.

Recall that back in the summer of 2022, Spain was the first to announce that it would give Leopard tanks to Ukraine. However, she later changed her mind. They said in Madrid that their tanks were so “old” that it was “dangerous” to send them to the front. However, in January 2023, the decision of Germany changed the mind of Madrid.
