Business Insider writes about this, citing several sources in the German defense department.
“Just a week before her resignation, former Defense Minister Christina Lambrecht instructed officials not to take an inventory of the Bundeswehr’s Leopard 1 and Leopard 2 tanks,” the article says.
It is noted that the decision is due to the fact that the calculation of combat-ready tanks by the Bundeswehr could be regarded as Germany's readiness to supply them.
Earlier, the chairman of the defense committee in the Bundestag, Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, said that Russian President Vladimir Putin can be congratulated due to the fact that the German authorities have so far refused to transfer Leopard tanks to Ukraine.
