– US Sending Saudi Arabia $750 Million In Bombs, Reversing 3-Year Ban:
Days ago we featured a report detailing how the US is ready to get back to ‘business as usual’ regarding Saudi Arabia, as the Biden administration is set to lift its three-year ban on sales of offensive weaponry to the Gulf kingdom.
Biden has been hoping to broker a Saudi-Israel normalization deal during this closing phase of his administration, and he’s trying to woo Riyadh connected with efforts toward a Gaza ceasefire to end the war there.
On Tuesday The Wall Street Journal has confirmed that the offensive weapons pipeline to Saudi Arabia is back on, reporting that the US is sending shipments of bombs worth more than $750 million. This is expected to be complete in the coming months, before Biden exits the White House.
