US suspends $23 billion sale of F-35s to UAE that followed Abraham Accords

The Biden administration has put a temporary hold on several major foreign arms sales initiated by former US president Donald Trump, including the deal to provide 50 F-35 advanced fighter jets to the United Arab Emirates, which was fast-tracked by Washington after Abu Dhabi agreed to normalize relations with Israel. In addition to the massive $23 billion transfer of stealth F-35 fighters to the United Arab Emirates, another deal being paused is the planned major sale of munitions to Saudi Arabia. Both sales were harshly criticized by Democrats in Congress.

  1. Here it goes. The Dem's remain stuck in their "Israel must make peace with Palestine before anything else can happen" paradigm. If it means destroying the Abraham Accords and re-isolating Israel, they'll do it!
