Approval of the sale of tank ammunition to Tel Aviv in Washington
The US State Department said that it has approved the emergency sale of 14,000 tank shells worth more than $106 million to the Zionist regime. |
According to the report of Fars News Agency International Group, the US State Department announced on Sunday morning that the Biden administration has approved the emergency sale of 14,000 tank shells worth more than 106 million dollars to the Zionist regime.
The department said Congress was notified of the deal after Secretary of State Anthony Blinken determined that the “emergency situation required an immediate sale” of ammunition in Washington’s national interest.
According to the “Associated Press” news agency, the US State Department’s emergency decision means that a contract does not pass congressional review requirements for foreign sales of military equipment, and such decisions are rare but unprecedented. It is not.
The statement of the US State Department states: “The United States is committed to Israel’s security, and helping Israel develop and maintain its self-defense capability and readiness is vital to America’s national interests. . Israel will use this capability as a deterrent against regional threats and to strengthen its defense”.
Before this, the US government, continuing its support for the Zionist regime, drafted the resolution. The UN Security Council vetoed an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. (more details)
