It is reported that the United States is strongly considering a plan to provide M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine.
The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) quoted Joe Biden administration officials on the 24th local time and reported that an official announcement could be made within this week.
The M1 Abrams is the main battle tank of Western countries along with Germany’s Leopard 2, and if the US finally decides to send the M1 Abrams to Ukraine, Germany will also support the Leopard 2.
Previously, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had asked Western countries for support for the Leopard 2, and Poland, Finland and Denmark said they were willing to send their own Leopard 2.
However, Germany, which does not want to lead the escalation of the war against Russia, does not approve the export of the Leopard 2 to a third country, and support for Ukraine is blocked. lost
