Trump Approves Sending More Weapons to Ukraine, Criticizes Putin and Threatens Increased Sanctions

President Trump said on Tuesday that he has approved the shipment of U.S. defensive weapons to Ukraine and is considering more sanctions against Moscow, underscoring his disappointment with Russian President Vladimir Putin over the rising death toll in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Trump, who promised to end the war in a day when he ran for president, has failed to deliver on that promise, and his administration's efforts to broker peace have fallen short. On Tuesday, Trump directed his anger at Putin during a meeting with cabinet officials at the White House. "I'm not happy with Putin. I can tell you that much right now," Trump said.
