German tanks in Ukraine – level 1

German tanks in Ukraine

02-02-2023 15:00

For several months, Ukraine asks Western countries for help. Ukraine needs modern tanks to fight against Russia.

Last week, Germany says that it will send 14 tanks to Ukraine. Other countries have German tanks. They can send them to Ukraine, too. German tanks do not fight anywhere in Europe since World War II.

Other European countries want to send help to Ukraine. These countries are for example Finland, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

Russian officials say that they will destroy Western tanks. If the United States send tanks, too, it will make Russia very angry.

Difficult words: tank (a very heavy vehicle to fight), destroy (to damage something so badly that you cannot use it anymore).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What will happen if Germany sends 14 tanks to Ukraine?
