On the other hand, if we know this, the Russians do too. And the Ukrainians know they know, so the Ukrainians could be bragging to make the Russians think they don’t have the codes when they actually do. Crafty.

Sending weapons is considered a low level provocation. The US and Russia have been shipping weapons around the world for a long time. Very few people other than Al Qaeda think it’s a reason to attack.
