Nobody tell Vladimir Putin, but President Trump just broke with the Obama administration and will sell lethal arms to the Ukrainian government, which is engaged in conflict with pro-Russian separatists.

Wow. Is this for real?
Man, CNN is going to have meltdown.
“B-b-b-b-but Russian collusion!”
WINNING!
I still haven’t forgiven the Ukrainians for backing Hillary instead of President Trump
Who gives a flying hug? Overall it makes more sense to send these weapons directly to Russia since everything send to Ukraine is immediately sold by the military to whoever pays more.
What could possibly go wrong?
Uke rebels is Eastern Ukraine are whining that the government forces has moved 600 SPGs into area to hit their cities.
We might expect some crap storm by new year.
One thing for sure, MSM would brazenly lie about it.
Agreed. Ukraine run by thugs (not that most countries aren’t), so why do this? Russia is our natural ally against Islam. I don’t get why so many people in the US want to pimp with them.
CNN and our very own Putinistas.
“NO PUPPET: President Trump approves sale of lethal arms to Ukraine, busting collusion narrative”
nope. this does nothing but add more proof of collusion with Russia, since Trump is doing this ONLY to try to disprove collusion ...
(hey, just trying to get in ahead of CNN/ABC/CBS/NBC/MSNBC/WaPo)
Totally agree. This wouldn’t have happened if we didn’t overthrow the legit Ukrainian regime. The hypocrisy is deadly.
Sometimes you wonder if our foreign policy is run by a bunch of college sophomore political science majors.
“One thing for sure, MSM would brazenly lie about it.”
You can be sure of that fact.

U.S. approves license for Ukraine to buy small arms from U.S. firms
Reuters Staff2 Min Read
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. State Department has approved an export license for Ukraine to buy certain light weapons and small arms from U.S. manufacturers, spokeswoman Heather Nauert said on Wednesday.
Department records show Ukraine has bought small amounts of those types of weapons for several years, both before and after the 2014 Russian annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula.
I wonder how they’re going to try to explain away that both the House and the Senate were always near unanimously supporting it and it was Obama, who blocked it in the past.
