Video, which reportedly shows Ukrainian tankers mastering American M1 Abrams tanks, was shared online. On January 25, Biden confirmed the supply of 31 M1 Abrams tanks for Ukraine, where they are expected to create one tank battalion.
Biden called Abrams “the most combat—ready tanks in the world,” but which are also difficult to maintain. The operation of advanced US tanks requires high skills of the crews. Without well-trained crews, these vehicles risk to become easy targets for Russian forces on the battlefield.
In this regard, Washington claimed it would transfer the necessary equipment to Kiev and has already begun training the Ukrainian military. US President Biden admitted that the delivery of tanks on the battlefield will take time. The delivery time has not been disclosed yet.
