"One Battalion is not enough": Polish general called the condition for the Armed Forces counter -offensive

According to Poland's ex -commander Waldemar Sklipchak, Ukraine needs up to 20 battalions of modern tanks for the offensive. The military stated that about fifty tanks were needed to defeat the Armed Forces. The Polish General and Former Commander of Poland Waldemar Skrzipchak said that Ukraine requires "dozen battalions" for effective counter -offensive, and up to 500 modern tanks as a whole. He criticized the event for the slow supply of arms of the Armed Forces.

This is known from the material of "Ukrinform". "One tank battalion is not enough. For an effective counter-offensive, Ukrainians need 16-20 battalions of modern tanks. It is necessary to have a strong armored fist in a dozen battalions that will be able to break through the defense and then persecute the retreat of the Russians," the professional tank said. Sklipchak criticized the event for insufficient supply of military assistance to Ukraine.

In his view, political decisions are made "very slowly" by countries. The Polish General noted that Ukrainian defenders receive tanks only now, although they were asked in the fall. He is convinced that in order to win Ukraine in 2023 the event should stop giving tanks "by the drip method", that is, only one battalion for half a year. "There must be decisive action that will give the Ukrainian army a qualitative advantage over Russian.

Europe should give Ukraine more tanks from their own arsenals and then replenish them through the new production of armored vehicles. In order to break the Russians, Ukraine needs 400-500 modern tanks in Ukraine ", - said Poland's excavators. The military noted that it was not only about Leopard, but also about other types of modern tanks - Abrams and Challenger. We will remind, today Kiev was visited by the Minister of Defense of Norway Arilda Gram.
