Ukrainian soldiers, 40 tankers and 15 mechanical experts are completing their training in Spain on Leopard 2A4 tanks that will be deployed in Ukraine. The Spanish Army has trained them for several weeks and assures that they will leave for Ukraine with a “very acceptable knowledge” of the vehicles. Spain has promised to send six Leopard 2A4s, although the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, has announced his intention to increase this number to ten.
