The “sale” of American arms would fall under Foreign Military Sales (FMS) and would have to be approved by Congress.

I don’t think that’s correct.
My understanding is Congress doesn’t have to approve, but can reject the sale with a joint vote in both houses of Congress. Maybe a 2/3 vote required? A key difference.
That is why I blame Biden. He could have approved sales to Ukraine during times when military aid was in short supply.
