Most recently, the United States and Germany have agreed to send tanks to Ukraine, reports <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/russia-ukraine-zelenskyy-politics-government-donetsk-119eacfc993491b4b66a117ddfe91696\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">AP News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. This comes as an addition to other combat vehicles that the two countries have pledged to send. This comes after concern from Germany about being the only state to send such advanced weapons into Ukraine, and facing Russian pushback alone, according to AP News.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/russia-ukraine-leopard-tanks-germany-nato-scholz-putin-zelensky-1776426\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Newsweek<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Germany is preparing to give Ukraine 14 of its Leopard 2 main battle tanks, while the U.S. is sending approximately 30 of its M1A2 Abrams. In addition to supplying the tanks, training will be given to Ukrainian military members in Germany. Germany will also supply logistics assistance and maintenance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The U.S. and Germany are not the only NATO members looking to give aid to Ukraine. Newsweek reports that Poland and Finland, which are<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">not a part of NATO but have<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">requested to join the alliance, have both publicly voiced willingness to send tanks to Ukraine. Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Norway, Denmark, France, and the United Kingdom are reportedly assessing the possibility of sending their own tanks to the Ukrainian forces as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the arrival of the new weapons, Ukrainian leaders are now requesting Western fighter jets to advance their efforts. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2023\/1\/25\/ukraine-eyes-fighter-jets-after-securing-advanced-nato-tanks\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Al Jazeera<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Ukraine\u2019s air force consists of Soviet-era fighter jets, many of which were made before Ukraine gained its independence over 30 years ago. Many Western leaders are still against this idea, but Ukrainian leaders have cited that until recently many leaders were against sending tanks to them as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This has also been an opportunity for NATO to attempt to increase its connections in Asia. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg recently visited South Korea, reports <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nato.int\/cps\/en\/natohq\/opinions_211296.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">NATO<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where he spoke at the CHEY Institute. In his speech, Stoltenberg cited the growing relationship between South Korea and NATO, as well as the threats posed by North Korea. Stoltenberg thanked South Korea for condemning Russia\u2019s actions and cited the relevance of the Ukrainian war to people everywhere threatened by authoritarian leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While Stoltenberg\u2019s speech generally had an appreciative tone, many NATO members hope that South Korea and other Indo-Pacific allies will do more to support the Ukrainian efforts. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/natos-chief-urges-south-korea-step-up-military-support-ukraine-2023-01-30\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reuters<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Stoltenberg also urged South Korea to step up their support in terms of military means. Many of NATO\u2019s allies in that region have voiced their support but have not given weapons to Ukraine. South Korea has signed many deals providing large amounts of military equipment to NATO member Poland since Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, but President Yoon Suk-yeol has cited a South Korean law that prevents the nation from giving military aid to a country in active conflict as the reason the country has not given the same type of support to Ukraine. Another one of NATO\u2019s key concerns with the conflict is that a Russian win could send the wrong message to Beijing, according to Reuters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not all NATO members are supportive of these aid decisions. Croatia\u2019s President Zoran Milanovic recently stated that \u201cit is clear that Crimea will never again be part of Ukraine,\u201d according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/nato-croatia-president-crimea-not-rejoin-ukraine-objects-western-weapons-2023-1?r=US&amp;IR=T\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Insider<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, also stating that he was against sending any lethal weapons into Ukraine, as this would prolong the war. This statement is in stark contrast to the stance that many other NATO leaders have taken, as well as the stance that Croatia\u2019s Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic has taken. While President Milanovic says he hopes to keep Croatia out of the conflict as much as possible, Prime Minister Plenkovic has claimed that these comments hurt Croatian foreign relations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">German Chancellor Olaf Scholz emphasized the importance that Western leaders are putting on the issue, saying that they want to continue supporting Ukraine but also prevent the war \u201cfrom escalating into a war between Russia and NATO,\u201d reports Al Jazeera. The one thing that has been made clear is that there is no chance of troops being sent from the West into Ukraine, but as the one-year mark of this war approaches it is expected that other forms of Western aid will continue to flow into Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Image courtesy of NATO,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/nato\/27029507408\">\u00a0<em>Flickr<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. and Germany are not the only NATO members looking to give aid to Ukraine.
