Washington is set to go ahead with a multi-billion-dollar warplane sale to the United Arab Emirates, a deal first signed by ex-President Donald Trump but frozen for review, including over concerns about the UAE’s role in Yemen.

The Joe Biden administration remains “fully committed” to the $23 billion F-35 deal to the gulf state, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Regional Security Mira Resnick told the Associated Press on Tuesday, saying the sale would be a “game changer” for the Emiratis.

“The F-35 is already in this region, whether it’s Israelis flying the F-35, whether it’s [the] American F-35,” said Resnick, who helps oversee international arms transfers.

We would like the UAE to be able to operate the F-35 in a way that [they] can be our security partners and to deter threats, including from Iran.
