Not an american here, but is it not the congress that allocates funds and the president only signs off on it? My understanding was that Trump tried to get a quid pro quo in order to follow it through.
Biden is currently bypassing Congress to sell weapons to Israel, so no, Congress is not solely responsible for weapons sales. Trump did withhold lethal aid from Ukraine for quid pro quo. That was after the first ever sales of weapons though. So he both made the first sales and also did the witholding of additional sales some time later.
Donald Trump was the first US president to send weapons to Ukraine and every politician in the world knows this

Sorry sweaty but that’s not the Atlantic Council approved narrative. Trump is a Putin puppet because pee pee tapes.
