Polish Foreign Minister: We are determined to send Leopard to Ukraine “regardless” of the decisions of other countries

Certainly, we will send these tanks,” Zbigniew Rau told reporters after a meeting of European Union foreign ministers.

Poland is “more than determined” to send tanks to Ukraine regardless of whether or not other countries join the plan, Poland’s foreign minister said in Brussels on Monday night.

“Sure, we will send these tanks,” Zbigniew Rau told reporters after a meeting of European Union foreign ministers.

This response from the Polish foreign minister is in stark contrast to a statement earlier today by Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, who said that a “precondition” for Poland was an agreement with a “small coalition” of states willing to send tanks in Ukraine.

Rau said on Monday that it “remains to be determined” whether other countries will join Poland in sending Western tanks to Ukraine and that “negotiations are ongoing”.

Asked by the foreign minister if Poland would seek permission, Rau said “we will, of course.”

Asked what he thought of the German government’s approach to the matter, the Polish foreign minister said: “German reactions could be more decisive and more dynamic.”
