nafta was the death nail in detroit. and how did we get nafta?
Saudi Arabia needs a replacement for the Pakistanis; and Egypt is
the only choice. Large cash grants to Pakistan over many years have
cemented those bonds of mutual dependents. Saudi Arabia has been
generous as well with Egypt through the decades of Mubarak’s rule
and with El-Sisi without receiving much in return. Now, both are in
need and Egypt has debts to repay; and those debts are increasing
by the billions.
Within a few days of the reduction of aid by the U.S.
to Egypt, the Egyptians signed an agreement with Russia
to purchase fifteen billion dollars in military equipment
that includes MIG-29 fighters. By financing the purchases,
the Saudis are demonstrating to the Egyptian how important
they are in Saudi plans and are sending a message to Washington
that the separation has begun

Clinton, of course. Same 'courtesy' he gave repealing the Glass Steagall Act.
That was the harbinger of the financial crisis.

now what would a democrat like clinton have in common with socialists or capitalists?
it's really easy to see it once you see the game repeated a few times. a handful of global capitalists

And, I think Saudi Arabia is aligning with Russia. Probably to get away from the U.S. Dollar soon.
They know a joke when they see it !!

there is a great deception taking place to associate modern Russia with the End-Times 'Bear' Empire

I'm just personally not shocked that Russia is still a major military power,
and is making significant steps to coming back on the seen as the global giant it once was.

Russia can not compete with the West in quality and is losing the cheap weapons market to the Chinese.
This is a very pertinent issue, and even if Egypt thinks it can have both,
I highly doubt that. And further, how would the systems integrate?
Russian design vs Western MIC.
Will be interesting to see what happens here.
MrSpad
They want US weapons and backing which is why the state of emergency suddenly ended. I expect elections will not be far behind and US aid will follow.
