KLIETZ TRAINING GROUND, Germany (Reuters) - Minutes after tank muzzles flashed and the crack of guns rang out across muddy grounds, the head of the EU's Special Training Command explained how Ukraine is seeking more training on offensive tactics and the education of military leaders.
Eighteen months after Russia's February 2022 invasion, Kyiv's requests have changed from an initial need for training on defensive tactics and how to fight in urban areas, Lieutenant General Andreas Marlow told reporters on a visit to a training ground in Germany on Thursday.
