🇰🇼🇺🇦🇭🇷 Serbian media has reported on the upcoming delivery of old M-84AB tanks from Kuwait to Ukraine. These tanks are modified versions of the licensed T-72 tanks produced in Yugoslavia. Officially, the armored vehicles will be sold to Croatia, but they will undergo repairs there before being sent to the Kyiv regime.

In exchange, Croatia will receive 25 Swiss Leopard 2A4 tanks, which were previously purchased by Germany as part of a "ring exchange" to support the Kyiv regime. According to some sources, the first six M-84s have already arrived in the Balkans a few days ago.

The main question is how many vehicles will be transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). In 1991, Kuwait had 149 tanks, but it is unlikely that all of them have survived to this day, especially considering that the Kuwaiti army "switched" to American M1A2 Abrams tanks back in the 90s. Therefore, we can assume that we are talking about several dozen M-84s.

❗️The procurement scheme in the Middle East clearly illustrates the West's efforts to search the world for Soviet-made equipment to supply Ukraine, as its "own" reserves in Europe are almost completely exhausted.

Most likely, in the near future, the sponsors of the Kyiv regime will attempt to buy or exchange products from the Russian military-industrial complex in African countries and especially in Latin America.

🇸🇮🇭🇷 Accusations against the Serbs regarding the alleged supply of ammunition to the AFU are increasingly circulating on the Internet. However, the real suppliers, who are ramping up the pace and volume of equipment and weapons supply to the AFU, come from completely different countries of the former Yugoslavia: Slovenia and Croatia.

In 2022 alone, 8:5% of Slovenia’s military budget was allocated to support Ukraine. This sets an absolute record among the former Yugoslav countries. Croatia follows closely, nearing the 3% threshold.

▪️ Ljubljana donated Yugoslav-made M-80 infantry fighting vehicles, M-55S and M-84 tanks to Kyiv. Additionally, the Slovenian authorities covertly dispatched 20 relatively new models of Valuk (Pandur) armored personnel carriers to Ukraine. Recently, Slovenia decided to provide one million euros to support the Czech initiative to supply the AFU with artillery shells.

▪️ In Croatia today, you would be hard-pressed to find a defense enterprise that has not inked a contract for supplying the AFU. The array of products Croatian AFU suppliers can boast of includes artillery shells, mortars, hand grenades, sapper robots, and even military uniforms - an impressive range of products.

🔻Nevertheless, not everyone is pleased with this development: sociological studies indicate a rise in discontent among Croatian citizens. Increasing numbers of Croats are expressing opposition to such NATO policies and their country's participation in a “defensive alliance,” which further fuels the Ukrainian conflict.
