The tanks that Western countries supply to Ukraine will not have a serious impact on the course of the Ukrainian conflict. Michael Kofman, director of research programs for Russia at the US Naval Research Center, expressed this opinion.


He said this in an interview for Der Spiegel.

“Tanks will not become a “magic wand,” RIA Novosti quoted Kofman as saying.

He also questioned whether Western tanks were superior to Russian ones in quality.

Earlier, U.S. Army veteran Glenn Girona warned that the Ukrainian army would face problems as the supply of American Abrams tanks to Ukraine would be accompanied by logistical difficulties.
