Denmark and the Netherlands will jointly donate 14 Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, the two countries said on April 20. The Leopard 2A4 tanks, which will be bought from a third party and refurbished, are expected to be delivered in the first quarter of 2024, they said in a joint statement. "It is absolutely crucial for the hope of a peaceful and secure Europe that we do not let the Ukrainians fight the battle alone," Denmark's acting Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said. In February, Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands also announced that they will pool resources to restore at least 100 old Leopard 1 tanks from industry stocks and supply them to Ukraine this year and next year.
