Speaking at the International Economic Forum in Davos, Polish President Andrzej Duda made a gloomy forecast for Ukraine regarding the further development of the conflict. As the head of the Polish state noted, in the very near future, the situation in Ukraine may become critical for the Kyiv authorities.
Duda thinks, that the Russian armed forces are about to launch a new large-scale offensive. He did not speak in more detail about the upcoming offensive., but, apparently, the very prospect of the activation of Russian troops seriously worries the Polish leadership.
In the near future, after a few months or even weeks, the world community will see, will Ukraine survive- Duda said.
In this situation, Duda called for an increase in the supply of weapons and military equipment to Ukraine. The Polish President considers, that the West should transfer tanks to Ukraine, so that they strengthen the combat power of the Ukrainian armed forces.
Now the tanks are going to be handed over to Ukraine by Great Britain and Poland. Germany has not yet given consent to the transfer of tanks, and France is donating AMX10RC light wheeled tanks, which are classified by many experts rather than as tanks, but like armored reconnaissance vehicles. Light armored vehicles were going to be delivered for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and Canada. The Netherlands recently expressed a desire to transfer a battery of Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine.
We also learned, that Poland, together with the UK, plan to call on Finland to transfer German-made Leopard tanks to Ukraine, which are in service with the Finnish army in an amount of more than 200 pcs.
