On Thursday, McCain sent a letter to Trump, calling on him to approve providing Kiev with defensive lethal assistance amid the spike of violence in eastern Ukraine.
“I don’t know. I’ll have to get back to you on that,” Spicer said when asked if Trump was looking into arming the Ukrainians.
McCain clarified that Trump should send Javelin FGM-148 handheld anti-tank missiles to Kiev to support Ukraine government forces.
