trump has been far tougher on russia than obama ( hey mitt, the 1980s called, they want their foreign policy back, haw haw haw!!) ever was. trump is tough with russia, but seems awestruck with putin. he needs to get past that.

Administration officials confirmed that the State Department this month approved a commercial license authorizing the export of Model
M107A1 Sniper Systems, ammunition, and associated parts and accessories to Ukraine, a sale valued at $41.5 million. These weapons address a specific vulnerability of Ukrainian forces fighting a Russian-backed separatist movement in two eastern provinces.
There has been no approval to export the heavier weapons the Ukrainian government is asking for, such as Javelin antitank missiles.
then a a year later 03.01.18
The $47 million sale includes 210 Javelin anti-tank missiles and 37 launch units, the State Department said, again all optics the Russians are all ready at the door step 210 javelin wont stop or deter them if they want more .. dont be fooled
and all this some how absolves Trump from his current predicament
