He told reporters other countries were providing Tanks to Ukraine: " I don't have any announcements to make on M1s [Abrams] and you heard The German minister of defence say that they've not made a decision on Leopards. "
Some of those to sending Tanks to Ukraine include the UK which will send 14 Challenger 2 Tanks .
Despite hesitation over The Abrams Tanks , the US announced fresh support worth More Than $2. 5bn (£2bn) This Week , including armoured vehicles.
