Germany plans to hand over a new batch of anti-tank weapons to Ukraine. As it became known to the publication Tagesspiegel, the German Ministry of Defense has announced its intention to provide 2,000 grenade launchers.

Probably – Panzerfaust 3, which has been already handed over (Militarnyi assumptions).

The German federal government also plans to hand over 1,700 Strela MANPADS to the Armed Forces. Earlier, two batches of 500 units of these Soviet portable anti-aircraft missile systems were probably handed over, BILD reports.

On March 21, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock announced intention to strengthen Ukraine’s defense support.

Sweden will hand over 5,000 anti-tank weapons to Ukraine. This was stated to Swedish Radio by Defense Minister Peter Hultqvist. Probably it will be AT4 grenade launchers, which have already been transferred (Militarnyi assumptions).

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson has informed the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky that he plans to use the G7 and NATO meetings to “significantly” increase aid to Ukraine with weapons.

This should strengthen Ukraine’s negotiating position.
