WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump has approved the sale of more lethal arms to Ukraine as the country fights off Russian-backed fighters in its east ? despite the president?s recent overtures for cooperation with Russian President Vladimir Putin. But while the latest sale is a new gift to the Ukrainian government, Trump still has not made a decision on whether to provide a more powerful lethal-aid package that includes anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles ? a proposal recommended by his National Security Council and awaiting his approval for months now. The newest sale consists of small arms and light weapons, according to the State Department.
