Biden Freezes UAE, Saudi Arms Sales for Review
U.S. President Joe Biden's administration has temporarily frozen a massive package of F-35 jets to the United Arab Emirates and arms to Saudi Arabia for further review, officials said Wednesday.
A State Department spokesperson said the freeze is meant to ensure that "U.S. arms sales meet our strategic objectives of building stronger, interoperable and more capable security partners."
