Only the first step: McCain reacted to Trump's decision to give weapons to Ukraine

American senator John McCain supported the decision of the administration of US President Donald Trump on lethal weapons to Ukraine.

He announced this on his official website.

I welcome the announcement that the Trump Administration approved the sale of lethal defensive weapons to Ukraine. This had to be done for a long time, but nonetheless, it comes at a key moment. Ukrainians withstand some of the worst battles over the course of several months, since Russia has withdrawn its officers from one of the key mechanisms of cease-fire, and militants led by Russia have intensified their attacks in eastern Ukraine. At every turn, Vladimir Putin chose a war instead of peace in Ukraine. With the continuation of this choice, the United States and the free world must give Ukraine what it takes to defend itself , "McCain said.

However, he believes the US should give Ukraine more.

"That's why the announcement of the decision to approve the sale of sniper rifles and ammunition should only be the first step. I urge the president to allow additional sales of lethal defense weapons, including anti-tank ammunition, and to make full use of the security funds provided by the Congress," the senator wrote.

Let's remind, this morning, about giving Ukraine the opportunity to buy in the USA sniper systems Model M107A1, ammunition and related accessories and accessories in the amount of 41.5 million dollars. The USA reported to The Washington Post.

There may be something to blame: in Russia they evaluated Putin's actions against the United States

Russian political scientist Dmitry Oreshkin believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin is trying to intimidate the West, but noting the ineffectiveness of such actions, maybe go to more radical measures.

He wrote about this in a column on "Apostrophe".

"Putin understood the situation of pushing the conflict, but the incomprehensible asymmetric answers, or rather, he does not know what to do with them." The United States, in fact, knows that Putin will be afraid to strike these missiles. "So, they think: you produce - well, produce, and we are still on two zarubki tighten the band of sanctions. Here's a situation like this,"- wrote Oreshkin.

Political scientist believes that ignoring the West of Putin's blackmail can lead to unexpected unpleasant consequences.

"Putin and his team, which are trying to implement the usual Soviet scenario of intimidation and escalation, underestimate the experience that has accumulated in the US intelligence services - they understand that they are scaring and scaring the place that the hedgehog usually scares, and this is very dangerous, because Putin, for seriousness of intentions, may have to mind something like that. I hope that this will not come to him in his head, but then all his efforts will be gone in vain because they are not taken seriously, "he continued.

More about the maneuvers of the President of the Russian Federation read in the column on Dmitry Oreshkin's "Apostrophe": "Games on the brink of war: Putin chose a dangerous scenario, the United States already respond."

Trump approves sale of lethal weapons to Ukraine, but without Javelin anti-tank missiles

The administration of President Donald Trump authorized supplying Ukraine with sniper rifles M107A1 and associated equipment for the amount of $41.5 million. However, the US government has not agreed to supply Ukraine with anti-tank missiles Javelin and other types of heavy weapons, as requested by Kyiv.
As informs  Tsensor.NET with reference to  ZN.UA, the Washington Post writes about it.

The publication recalls that the US Congress has authorized such sales in 2014 in the Law on Support of Freedom of Ukraine, but the administration of President Barack Obama has not finally decided on the delivery of deadly weapons to Ukrainian troops.

Experts and officials stated that Tramp's decision was balanced - he did not approve of everything that the Ukrainians demanded, but nonetheless approved the first sale of lethal weapons, which is a significant change in the approach of his administration and US policy as a whole.

White House decision congratulated Republican senator Bob Korker, who said: "I am glad that the administration has decided to sell Ukraine defense weapons," noting that "this decision is supported by the Congress."

However, as the CNN correspondent reports, "the State Department has confirmed that Ukraine can now buy light weapons from American manufacturers," but these deliveries are not made by the US government. "

Recall that the American company from Texas, AirTronic USA, has received a license and already supplies PSRL grenade launchers to Ukraine. According to Richard Wendiver, director general of the company, cooperation with Ukraine was started two years ago, and the first deliveries of grenades to Ukraine were made in 2016. Exported to Ukraine grenade launchers created in the US for an improved version of the Soviet RPG-7.

Earlier, the House of Representatives of the US Congress supported the draft US defense budget for 2018, which provides for the allocation of $ 350 million in military aid, as well as the provision of lethal defense weapons to Ukraine.

Ukraine News in brief. Thursday 21 December. [Ukrainian sources] Empty The Kremlin reacted to the possible supply of weapons from Ukraine to the United States

Thu Dec 21, 2017 1:41 pm
The Kremlin reacted to the possible supply of weapons from Ukraine to the United States

The press secretary of Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Peskov, said that deliveries of lethal weapons from Ukraine to the United States "can heat hot heads of nationalists who are seeking to unleash the bloodshed in the Donbas."

It was reported by the federal agency RIA-Novosti.

He said that information about the supposed decision of the United States on this issue has already been rejected by Washington.

"Moscow's response to possible deliveries of lethal weapons to Ukraine is well known. Perhaps this is once again heated by the already hot heads of nationalists, who only seek to revert to a forceful settlement method in the Donbass, and absolutely hopeless, and to unleash the bloodshed again, "he said.

The Washington Post earlier reported that the US president's administration approved the sale of lethal defensive weapons to Ukraine.

It is noted that the State Department this month approved a commercial license allowing export of sniper systems Model M107A1, ammunition and related accessories and accessories to Ukraine in the amount of 41.5 million dollars. At the same time, it's not about Javelin anti-tank missiles.

As you know, the US Senate predicted in 2018 the allocation of Ukraine's defense weapons and $500 million in aid. The TV channel ABC said that the United States is considering three options for the transfer of lethal weapons to Ukraine.

France intends to eliminate the "DPR"

The French prosecutor sued the prosecutor's office in Aix-en-Provence, demanding the judicial liquidation of the so-called "DPR office" that was previously opened in Marseille.

This was announced by Ambassador of France to Ukraine, Isabel Dumont, in an interview with the publication "European Truth".

She noted that the said appeal was sent several weeks ago, and the necessary procedures are being carried out at the moment. However, the diplomat did not predict how long the procedure might last.

"I can only add that I have confidence in the French judiciary and that it will bring the procedure to an end," Dumont said.

He stressed that the French government did not consider it lawful to establish a "representative office of the DPR".

Recall that the so-called "representation of the DPR" was opened in Marseille on September 25. It was registered as a public association, for which no prior permission is required.

The French authorities stated that they had never recognized the so-called "DPR" and did not support bilateral contacts with the "republic".
