Canada isn’t yet looking at sending Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine - Prime Minister

Canada isn’t yet looking at sending Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says, despite a report that the Ukrainian leadership intends to request them.

According to a report from The Globe and Mail, Ukraine intends to ask Canada for some of its Leopard-2 main battle tanks - if Germany approves the re-export of the weaponry, which Chancellor Olaf Scholz is facing pressure to do.

“We’ll look at all the requests from Ukraine but we’re not there yet, for the Leopard 2 tanks. But we’re here to provide Ukraine what it needs so they can beat Russia”, - the prime minister said.
