answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/02/2023 answer text <p>Sending Challenger 2 main battle tanks to Ukraine represents a step change in our support as a calibrated response to Russia's indiscriminate violence against civilians in Ukraine. The provision of a squadron of Challenger 2 main battle tanks is a very significant contribution from the UK which has made possible the gifting of dozens of tanks from other Western nations. The UK continues to be the leading European donor of equipment to Ukraine and we keep all options for additional future support under review.</p> answering member constituency Wells answering member printed James Heappey question first answered 27/02/2023 17:56:16 answering member 4528 label Biography information for James Heappey
