Bubble-Olaf has promised more weapons for Ukraine. Value: 500 million.

Hooray!

Hooray...?

They will be delivered not before 2023, and are part of a German idea about sustainably modernising the ukrainian forces (with pickups and engineer tanks...)

That they must win the running war first, apparently did not come to his mind.

No tanks or IFVs or APCs. Instead stuff that not even the Bundeswehr has. Next year. If so.

BTW, the Ringtausch-"deals" with 3 or 4 European neighbours that Germany suggested and planned and endlessly talks about, still have not materialised. Month 6 of the war. The dozens of Marders and Leopards the industry could deliver immediately, still are being ignored by the joke-chancellors office.
