Christmas gift to Putin from Trump: Ukraine – which Putin illegally annexed — gets $41 MILLION in defensive weapons

Merry Christmas 2017  from President Trump to President Putin!  The Ukraine gets a gift of $41 MILLION in defensive weapons.

Finally. To Russia …. with love  from …  James Bond?

Trump’s policy towards the Ukraine  is a complete change in policy  from Obama’s policy –  as Obama  would not help the Ukraine when it was annexed by Putin back in 2014.

From the Wall Street Journal,  On Monday the White House released a new national security strategy that named Russia as a “revisionist” power seeking to upend global order. On Wednesday President Trump followed up by confirming heâ€d approved the sale of lethal defensive weapons to Ukraine as it resists Vladimir Putinâ€s aggression.

Mr. Putin invaded and then illegally annexed Crimea in 2014, and Ukrainians have been fighting since to stop the march of Moscow-backed separatists in their south and east. Theyâ€ve had little material support from the West. Thatâ€s about to change now that the Trump Administration has approved a $41.5 million sale of weapons that include the Model 107A1 Sniper Systems, ammunition and parts.

Comment by Aptos Psychologist:  Actions speak louder than words.  Trump’s rhetoric of ‘get along’ with  Russia –   now has teeth with a bite.  Other  news:  Russia’s top prosecutor’s son is now on the “bad list” and cannot enter the USA or access his financial assets.
