Role of the United States in arms race
Role of the United States in arms race
Role of the United States in arms race. The
Americans have left Afghanistan. And gave gifts to the Taliban. Their modern
combat helicopters attack planes with rifles and machine guns. And smooth out
the latest American weapons.
And
this is not the first time the United States has been repeatedly convicted.
Criminal terrorist groups have never designed rogue governments. And once, by
default, the United States fed the world war machine.
Used to weaken American weapons. Our government says it is fighting for international peace and security. And
besides welcome, I am Palki Sharma's weapon. Sales have been an integral part
of US foreign policy for decades.
Beginning
of arms sales
Washington has sold arms and ammunition to
almost any country. Who wants to buy them in some cases? He did so without
informing Congress or the American people. At the height of the Cold War
between us and the Soviet Union, the Nixon administration began sending arms to
the country.
The sovereign expansionist policy was called the
Nixon ideology. The goal is to change American weapons. The Americans wanted to
send weapons to the Allies instead of sending troops to their territory. As a
result, arms sales increased tenfold.
Role of the United States in arms race. The
United States has sent weapons to countries such as Ethiopia, Laos, and
Cambodia. Vietnam and Iran sold billions of dollars worth of weapons to the
Shah of Iran in 1970. It sold everything from cargo planes to supersonic
interceptor phantom bombers and surface-to-surface missiles. Iran buys 15 15
billion worth of state-of-the-art weapons And we're talking about half a
century ago.
The
United States did so in the hope of securing oil supplies from Iran and curbing
Soviet influence in the Persian Gulf. The Islamic Revolution took place when
Iran became an Islamic republic. And the new government took power in
opposition to an American ally. Of all these American weapons, they were used
against us in Panama.
For most of the 20th century, Panama was an
American ally. Which received billions in military aid and in 1989 was a major
US military base. The CIA asset has been in power for 20 years. And endangered
American interests. It attacked us, in which American soldiers encountered
American weapons. This is an aspect of the indiscriminate sale of arms.
But
Washington did not change its arms sales to Iraq in the 1980s. Keeping a check
on Iran only to compete with Iraq after the occupation of Kuwait. Guess which
weapon the Iraqis used at the same time.
The United States has sold missiles and tanks
to Somalia. Only to begin military intervention in Somalia in 1992. So he
invaded Afghanistan to fight the Taliban. Which was a product of pro-American
Mujahideen.
911 involved in al-Qaeda attacks and the US
position has not changed since 911. In fact, we drove a lot. And in the name of
bringing peace and stability. He sold weapons to each of his grandmothers.
Since 2001, the United States has sold about 22 722 billion worth of
conventional weapons to 167 countries.
Weapons customer:
There
are many red flags in suppressing the democratic race. Suspicious clients, we
will give you a short name. This gives US consumers an idea of the risk posed
by current and former users.
On the
stability of the government, how the government treats its people. And if the
country is involved in conflicts at home or abroad.
So the
score range is 5 to 15. Low-risk countries should do the opposite. At least the
weapons have been sold, as you can see here. Those high-risk countries have
become more and more.
These countries are Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The most unstable countries on the
planet. They are all in the possession of American weapons.
Then we
have Saudi Arabia currently engaged in military operations in Yemen, Tunisia, and Syria. Countries with a track record of human rights abuses are the
opposite of democracies. This is a valuable American client.
All of this tells you that we promote conflict
rather than stability. It fuels wars with its weapons. And this policy is
irrespective of who is in power.
Democrats
or Republicans have big claims that we all get. Amid the global controversy,
Donald Trump has signed hundreds of billions of dollars worth of arms deals for
US defense companies and contractors.
In 2017, it signed a 110 billion deal with Saudi Arabia alone. 42 other countries worth more than 84 84 billion. He was
against sending America to war. But it did ensure that the US war machine
treasury did not waste large investments in the United States.
Trump said others did not. It's just that
we're all presidents, from Richard Nixon to Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy
Carter to Ronald Reagan.
From
George W. Bush to Barack Obama. Bill and now incumbent Joe Biden have made
everything clear in the policy documents. These economic benefits are the
biggest consideration when approving a defense sale.
It's
about business, about the effects of arms sales that give us strategic
advantages. We appreciate one because it shifts the regional balance in favor
of American interests number two. They help to impress us. And the countries
that buy American weapons are number three. They give the United States access
to foreign military bases. So that they can maintain the supremacy of the
shadow.
And
fourth, they help increase pressure on client countries. That they vote with us
in the United Nations. This strategy has made us a global hub.
US
share in arms trade:
Russia
accounts for 33% of the US arms trade. Then China 23 France and Germany how
American client. They mostly use these weapons against their opponents.
Some
even against their own people. There is clear evidence of how US arms sales
reached recipients. There are economic, political, and social implications. How
they are managing the violations of humanity.
Violence, the icing on the cake of Taliban weapons
is a thing of the past. And once again, our weapons are in the hands of
non-state actors.
In
2014, the US Air Force dropped weapons in the Syrian border town of Kobane. For
Kurdish fighters, they ended up in the hands of the Islamic State. ISIS also
released a video thanking Washington for the gifts in 2019.
An investigation has revealed this. The
weapons that the United States provided to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab
Emirates fell into the hands of al Qaeda. And in the same year, various
investigations by various terrorist organizations in Afghanistan revealed that
American-made weapons had fallen into their hands.
These groups of rival militia groups in Yemen
have provided us with weapons against our government in Yemen. This list goes
on and on when you get into the habit of arming rogue governments and non-state
actors.
So you are the biggest threat to the world.
People who have your weapons. The United States cannot claim to promote human
rights. However, the United States cannot claim territorial security by selling
arms to human rights violators. While actively escalating regional conflicts,
the United States certainly cannot claim to be a torchbearer.
Peace and stability of democracy. As well as
being the world's largest arms dealer, global peace is not in line with our
defense industry. That is why the cycle of war continues.
Russian President Putin
