US Considering Lethal Defensive Arms to Ukraine

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is considering arming Ukraine with lethal defensive weapons that Kyiv could use against Russia-backed separatists. Opponents argue arming Ukraine risks escalating the conflict while supporters say better weapons would act as a deterrence to Russian aggression and give a psychological and political boost to Kyiv. The debate comes as Trump's new envoy on Ukraine, Kurt Volker, is to visit Russia soon. VOA's Daniel Schearf reports from Washington.
