As part of its military support, North Macedonia has decided to provide Ukraine with all its T-72A tanks, the number of which is estimated at 30-31 units. This will result in the complete withdrawal of tanks from the local army.
While in the case of Poland or Bulgaria it cannot be said that the transfer of the T-72 was a disarmament of a given formation, in the case of North Macedonia, such a term can already be used. This shows the scale of the involvement of such a small country in helping Ukraine, while many European countries many times richer and more powerful are often unable to provide adequate aid.
Eight of those tanks are already on the way.
