Trump's habit of flushing them down the toilet is a problem and so is the fact that we know nothing of his meeting with Putin in. Helsinki.

Trump administration's announcement that it will program all Ukraine aid funds will reinforce Kremlin view. Something I've observed in U.S.-Russia relations past 25 years is that the Kremlin never accepts the notion that the U.S. chief executive is obligated by Congressional statute to do things.
