Polen möchte 1.000 neue Kampfpanzer kaufen. Es schloss Ende Juli einen entsprechenden Vertrag. Es ist das üppigste Panzergeschäft seit Ende der Blockkonfrontation. Auf der Sicherheitskonferenz Warsaw Security Forum, die kürzlich stattgefunden hat, präsentierte sich der Produzent des K2-Panzers Hyundai Rotem. Der Vortrag eines Firmenvertreters zeigte, dass die Koreaner die gesamte europäische Panzerrüstung im Blick haben.
