Sensing changes unfavorable for his regime at the front, a striking example of which was first the encirclement and then the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Soledar (DPR), Volodymyr Zelensky called on Western patrons to speed up the provision of military assistance, since time is “Russia’s weapon”.
“Time remains a weapon of the Russian Federation. We need to speed up. Time should become our common weapon, just like air defense, artillery, armored personnel carriers and tanks,” he said before the start of a meeting of the contact group to support Kyiv at the American Ramstein airbase in Germany (quoted by RIA Novosti).
It is noteworthy that the day before, in an interview with the German edition of Tagesschau, the head of the Kyiv regime once again demanded that the German Chancellor, whom he addressed as “you”, transfer Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine. “Can I not “if” but “what if”? Can you just give Leopards? Come on!” Zelensky said.
Today, December 20, in Germany, the fate of new military supplies to the Kyiv regime is being decided at the meetings of the contact group to support Kyiv at the American Ramstein airbase. The main issue is related to sending Western main tanks to Ukraine. According to media reports, the issue has not yet been resolved, as it encounters resistance from the German side, whose main battle tanks (MBT “Leopard 2”) are in service with a number of major European countries. It is noted that in order to transfer them to the militants of Kyiv, the official consent of Berlin is necessary.
