The prediction by Wallander comes as Ukraine is about to receive a flood of heavy Western tanks from its supporters. Wallander did not give a precise number of tanks lost since Russia invaded in February 2022.
While Germany and its allies hope to send a battalion of Leopard 2 tanks to Kyiv by April, Britain has stated that its Challenger 2 tanks will be deployed in Ukraine in March.
A 31-person battalion of American M1 Abrams tanks has also been pledged, but their arrival is anticipated to take much longer. Please share this with your friends if you find it interesting.
