/tass/. Denmark, in cooperation with the Netherlands and Germany, will supply Leopard 1A5 tanks to Ukraine. This was reported in a press release issued on Tuesday by the Danish Defense Ministry.

"With the broad support of the Danish Parliament, the government has explored the possibility of cooperation on the repair and transfer of at least 100 tanks to Ukraine," the report says. - Together with the Netherlands and Germany, Denmark is now launching a project to upgrade Leopard 1A5 tanks. The first intermediate goal of the project is to deliver tanks to two battalions as quickly as possible, which corresponds to about 80 tanks. It is expected that the first tanks will be ready within a few months and will be used to train Ukrainian forces," the report says.

As part of the project, Ukraine will be offered training in the operation of tanks, as well as spare parts and ammunition, the press release explains.

Earlier, Danish Radio reported that we are talking about decommissioned tanks that are no longer part of the Danish Armed Forces. They were used in the war in the Balkans in 1994.
