Happy to confirm that 30 Slovak BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles have been handed over to Ukraine

- Nagy wrote in one of the social networks, adding that the delivery took place as part of a circular deal with the participation of Slovakia, Germany and Ukraine.

On November 15, 2022, the Slovak military department, on the one hand, and the German Ministry of Defense with the Rheinmetall group, on the other hand, signed an agreement under which Slovakia will receive 15 Leopard 2A4 tanks that have been overhauled with modernization. This armored vehicle was previously in service with various countries, after being decommissioned, it was bought by Rheinmetall and brought into combat readiness. In return, Bratislava undertook to supply Kyiv with 30 BMP-1s from the presence of the Slovak army.

Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received another 30 Soviet-made infantry fighting vehicles, in what condition the equipment is not yet known.

Earlier, the Germans signed a similar agreement with the Czechs, offering them 14 Leopard 2A4 tanks and one BPz 3 Büffel ARV as compensation for the T-72M1 tanks previously transferred to Ukraine.

Look, not all the "scrap metal" has been dumped yet ...

Everyone is trying to get tanks from Germany .. It is unlikely that only she is able to deliver cars to everyone, even repaired or from storage. Yes, and this is short-sighted, because the Russians will still come for debts, sooner or a little later ..

It's a joke, of course, the Anglo-Saxons stirred up a mess and Germany and the Germans should pay for the whole of Europe in the form of a ruined economy and memories of a past well-fed and happy life. I wonder how long the Germans will endure ...

There are two hundred more in Greece.

"Round Deal"! Slovakia is the enemy. The enemy will have to pay an indemnity (after the victory, essno).
It turns out that high living standards are provided by the robbery of the colonies.
Russians are obliged to come for THEIR money.

It’s not that the Slovaks were so much our enemies, it’s just that with the beginning of Gorbachev’s coming to power, the CPSU of the USSR lost the ability and desire to defend the ideals and gains of socialism both in its own country and abroad, making it possible to come out into the light of all rot and evil spirits both in USSR and in the socialist countries.

Now in Slovakia, as in other countries of the Warsaw Pact, in power, as a rule, Russia feels such rot and evil spirits and the fruits of its activities every day with its own eyes.

Where? In Slovakia? They are not and never were, at least after leaving Czechoslovakia. There is no work, everyone lives on benefits (Brussels throws up). Food prices are the same as in Germany, only the composition is different. And that was before the utility bills skyrocketed this year.

Tanks, Slovakia, infantry fighting vehicles, APU ... these spare parts are .. For the Germans, Eureka, for maintenance of tanks ..

[Normann]

That's right - they pleased the hegemon, shook off the old rubbish, got more modern weapons on the ball ...

It seems that the Czechs and Slovaks are the only Slavic peoples who participated in the Second World War on the side of Nazi Germany. Historical not brothers!

Czech troops, unlike the Slovak ones, were not in the ranks of the Wehrmacht.
But the Croats fought on the Eastern Front.

[invisible_man]

But the Czechs regularly supplied weapons to the Wehrmacht. There are more than 2,5 thousand self-propelled guns alone.

During the occupation, many simply tried to survive.

There was no question of survival. They worked for money.

Sudeten Germans from 1938 became citizens of the Reich.

[Shket53]

Yes, yes, it was precisely these Sudeten Germans, after being taken prisoner, that they suddenly declared themselves Czechs, EXACTLY Czechs, fearing execution for their atrocities .... by the way, and you didn’t hear anything about the volunteer Czech formations of the SS .... I highly recommend "Czech formations in WWII"

[Vladimir80]

the brotherhood of the Slavic peoples is a historical myth that has discredited itself many times ... it never really was and will not be in the future (it's like distant relatives ready to start a fight over inheritance)

[Bingo]

You can make points of invisibility from them - they are heavy, they will not immediately be put into scrap metal. And more than that, they are of little use. The motor resource is rather near zero, the weapon, they found out about the low efficiency of the regular one at Damansky ... The protection is also not very good, although it is better than matalyga

[Two]

For some time, these "lawn mowers" will shake the nerves and lives of our defenders! But they also have the same end - melting down for something worthwhile. The new country will need a lot of metal to restore the economy.

[evgen1221]

Western countries of Ukraine all continue to push.

[Lara Croft]

when she got there, he did not specify, he simply confirmed the fact of the transfer

.... frozen skeletons of infantry fighting vehicles, somewhere now they are standing in a forest plantation .... and on the roadsides ...
