(https://archive.is/BTRUS) > U.S. officials have told European allies they want them to keep buying American-made arms, amid recent moves by the European Union to limit U.S. manufacturers' participation in weapons tenders, five sources familiar with the matter told Reuters. .. > According to two of the sources, Rubio said any exclusion of U.S. companies from European tenders would be seen negatively by Washington, which those two sources interpreted as a reference to the proposed EU rules. I suppose it will be done as always: allow tenders from EU/US/etc. This time though, instead of always buying at least a certain amount from the US regardless of merit and cost (because what you were really buying was US protection), actually buy on merit and cost. The protection was a scam. |

While remembering that when you wanted to use what you purchased to defend your ally in Ukraine your supplier prohibited you. Lets see how much merit there is in any US purchase with that in the background...
