France hopes to supply Ukraine with AMX-10 RC tanks by March

French-made AMX-10 RC tanks are to be delivered to Ukraine within two months.

That's according to French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu, Ukrinform reports, referring to Sky News.

"Issuing a statement following talks with his Ukrainian counterpart [Oleksii Reznikov], Sebastien Lecornu said he is 'hoping' to deliver the tanks by March," the report reads.

He also reiterated France's general support for Ukraine in its battle against Russia.

Reznikov on Thursday had a phone call with Lecornu and thanked him for support for Ukraine.

In early January, President Emmanuel Macron announced France's decision to supply Ukraine with French-made AMX-10 RC light tanks.
