As the attack against Ukraine continues, the U.S. led a meeting with as many as 50 of Ukraine's allies to discuss providing defense weapons and aid for Ukraine. Ukraine has requested battle tanks and its allies are discussing who should send it. Germany is being pressured to send a Leopard 2 tank but they say they'll only send it if US also provides tanks. The Biden administration does not currently have plans to send tanks but US Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III announced a $2.5 billion package for Ukraine and said that the US will continue to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia.
