Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 3.01pm post the following, " US leaning towards sending Abrams tanks to Ukraine, reports say....The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the Biden administration is leaning toward sending Abrams tanks to Ukraine, and an announcement could come this week. "
Lets Get Real:
If the above happens, then the Western Powers will be on the same page, the Germans will feel happy that they are joined by the US, even if the US tanks do not really match the needs of the Kyiv Government. It will give Berlin cover at home, and make NATO more united. WHY does the UK always have to be first with these things, it would be nice for a change if the US had lead with the Germans, the UK was the first to state it would send 14 Challenger 2 tanks to the Ukraine. The above will not make the Kremlin happy, one hopes these tanks can push the Russians out of the Eastern Ukraine and push the Russians out of the Crimea. Putin will have worked out that he could be on the last of his 9 cat lives, if NATO is successful then one hopes that Putin will be overthrown. The battle for the Ukraine is about DEMOCRACY vs. AUTOCRACY, the West has to win, otherwise Putin will be knocking on the door of the Baltic States and Poland, and that could lead to WW3.
