Watch the video: boxing world champion Klitschko drives a Leopard tank test: – “Thank you, Germany!”
STORY: A year after Russia invaded Ukraine, former world heavyweight boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko test drove a German-made Leopard tank destined for Ukraine. Video footage released on Saturday (February 25) shows the brother of the mayor of Kiev, Vitali Klitschko, on one such tank, possibly at the Munster military training area between Hamburg and Hanover. He himself gave no information on this. “A year ago I never thought I would drive this ‘cat’. A year of war in Ukraine. A year of suffering. And a year in which our willpower became stronger than ever. As strong as this tank . Thank you, Germany. Thank you to the free world for everything you do for us Ukrainians.” German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius decided on Friday to hand over another four Leopard 2 A6 main battle tanks from German military stocks to Ukraine, the defense ministry said in a statement. Canada is also sending four more Leopard 2 main battle tanks and, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is imposing new sanctions on Russia.
