On Monday, President Trump said the United States would send more weapons to Ukraine, declaring, “I’m not happy with President Putin at all.” It was a sudden about-face for the Trump administration, which just last week ordered a halt to shipments of missiles and ammunition to Ukraine. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said at the time it was due to concerns over the Pentagon’s stockpiles. Congress approved the arms transfers last year as part of a $61 billion military aid package for Ukraine. President Trump said he wasn’t aware the weapons shipments had been stopped.

Meanwhile, the British government has brought new sanctions against Russian officials, accusing them of deploying chemical weapons to Ukraine’s frontlines. Dutch and German intelligence agencies said last week they’d gathered evidence of Russian drones dropping a choking agent on Ukrainian troops to drive them out of trenches and into the line of fire.
