British newspaper: Macron crosses the red line. French tanks go against the Russians
France will become the first NATO country to supply Western-made heavy armored vehicles to Ukraine.
This was reported by the PolitNavigator correspondent of the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph
“Vladimir Zelensky had been begging his allies for Western tanks for almost a year when Emmanuel Macron answered the phone this week. During Elisha’s short conversation with the Mariinsky Palace in Kyiv, Mr. Macron finally agreed to send one of his most coveted prizes to the Ukrainian president,” the article says.
It is indicated that we are talking about wheeled combat vehicles AMX-10 KR with an installed 105-mm cannon, which are periodically classified as wheeled tanks.
It is noted that this armored vehicle is not something special.
“But this gift makes France the first to send Western-made combat vehicles to Kyiv. A red line had been crossed, a military taboo broken, by the most unlikely of candidates. Mr Macron took the initiative and beat out countries such as the United States, Britain and Germany by sending heavy armor to Kyiv. This will be followed by a rush on the part of the allies,” the publication predicts.
