Coming: Qatar will buy US some F-15 fighters

The agreement was signed few weeks after trump signed a contract with Saudi Arabia for the supply of American weapons almost 110 billion.

United States and Qatar signed an agreement to purchase the last American F-15 fighters worth $ 12 billion. The agreement was signed by the head of the Pentagon James Mattis and the Minister of defence of Qatar Khali al-Attiyah, reports Al Jazeera.

Attiya said that the agreement emphasizes the “long-standing commitment of Qatar in cooperation with our friends and allies in the United States in the promotion of our military cooperation for closer strategic cooperation in our fight against violent extremism in our region and beyond”.

The exact number of fighters that will put USA to Qatar, do not call.

The agreement was reached a few weeks after the US President Donald trump has signed a contract with Saudi Arabia for the supply of American weapons almost 110 billion.

The agreement also was signed amid the diplomatic row between the bloc of countries headed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain and several other countries broke off relations with Qatar, accusing him of supporting armed groups and Iran, Qatar accusations have been repeatedly rejected.

As you know, a number of Arab countries severed diplomatic ties with Qatar. The reason for such action was to charge the government of Qatar in supporting terrorism, including “al-Qaeda” and “Islamic state”.
