The United States’ new administration froze arms sales agreed by Donald Trump to two Gulf allies, a move
This freeze will temporarily hold up the sales of F-35 jets and attack drones to the UAE and a large supply of munitions to Saudi Arabia.
The decision is seen as a signal of a major policy shift from the Trump administration, which agreed on the F-35 sale after the UAE agreed to formalize diplomatic relations with the Zionist regime.
The UAE Embassy in Washington said that the country anticipated a review of Trump’s arms sale and added it will work with the Biden administration.
“As in previous transitions, the UAE anticipated a review of current policies by the new administration. Specifically, the F-35 package is much more than selling military hardware to a partner,” the Embassy tweeted.
