President Joe Biden is reevaluating the U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia
John Kirby, the strategic communications coordinator for the National Security Council at the White House, said Tuesday that Biden believes “it’s time to take another look at this relationship and make sure that it’s serving our national security interests.”
Meanwhile, officials underscore the central role that Saudi Arabia plays in addressing broader national security concerns in the Middle East. Menendez did not warn the White House before announcing his intention to block future Saudi arms sales, Kirby said. “They are certainly aligning themselves with Russia," Jean-Pierre said."This is not a time to be aligning with Russia”
“There’s 70,000 Americans living in Saudi Arabia right now, not to mention all the other troops we have throughout the region,” Kirby said."So, it’s not only in our interest that missile defense in the region become more integrated and cooperative. It’s in the interest of our allies and partners in that part of the world as well."
