Ukraine ask for new Western tanks, get WW2 Soviet tanks instead - icarus - 02-10-2022
The West is smart. Their tanks are too precious to be given away & destroyed
Its like giving Bangla workers expensive excavators when they can just use spades & shovels to do the job
Western tanks are more precious than Ukrainian lives

UK military acknowledge rate of ammunition Ukr is using,
can exhaust UK ones in three weeks so it would be silly to
supply advance weapons without consider the cost.
When Ukr is able to repay it is unknown.
Euro economy is pretty bad.
