Russian Sukhoi-35 fighter jets
Washington … News Time
The United States is the world’s contractor, and it is up to the United States to decide who will buy weapons and from whom. He imposes economic sanctions on any country whenever he wants and isolates any country whenever he wants. This time too, the United States has threatened not to impose sanctions on Egypt. The United States has threatened Egypt with sanctions if it buys Russian warplanes. According to a foreign news agency, the United States has strongly warned Egypt against buying warplanes from Russia. The United States has previously threatened Turkey.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blanken had a telephone conversation with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh al-Shukri yesterday in which they discussed the purchase of Russian warplanes by Egypt. The US Secretary of State said that Egypt should take a very thoughtful step in this regard. Anthony Blanken also spoke with Sameh al-Shukri about the importance of a strong strategic partnership between the United States and Egypt. Earlier, former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had threatened Egypt. He had said that if Egypt bought Sukhoi-35 fighter jets from Russia, it would face US sanctions. The former US secretary of state has called on all allies, including Egypt, not to buy arms from Russia to secure relations with the United States. He said that if he did, he could face US sanctions. It should be noted that besides the United States and Egypt, the United States is also putting pressure on Turkey not to buy fighter jets from Russia. If the two countries or any other US ally buys fighter jets from Russia, the US sanctions system will be activated and sanctions will be imposed on them. So far, however, the Egyptian government has not planned to back down, but stands ready to sign an agreement with Russia to strengthen its defenses. It may be recalled that Pakistan has also hinted at buying new fighter jets from the development to improve its defense.
