The Australian’s Foreign Affairs and Defence correspondent Ben Packham was fascinated by Major Berezovskyi’s inside knowledge about Ukraine’s fight against the Russian invasion, and posted this powerful story today about Ukrainian defenders and the high value of donated Australian military kit.
The story notes the highly valued Bushmasters, and focuses on the potential for the Government to donate to Ukraine the soon-to-be retired M1A1 Abrams tanks.
The AFUO has consistently advocated for the Federal Government to consider donating decommissioned ADF kit to Ukraine. We hope there is an option to have the M1A1 Abrams tanks committed to Ukraine, instead of dismantled like the MRH-90 Taipans, which remains a huge missed opportunity for Australia and Ukraine.
