I told the Humar: Let us wait and see
He Lied asking:
How can a blog called Uprooted Palestinians supposed to be a tribune for the Palestinian cause stand with those who cooperate and coordinate with Israel and promote those who recognize and compromise with Israel ? ....
- Isn’t the Egyptian army the greatest recipient of US military aid ? ...
- How does this serve Syria and the Axis of the Resistance?
- Or Syria is no more part of this Axis?
- Is al Sisi to be praised for this as well ?
While waiting: Egypt’s Sisi in Russia for $2-Billion Arms Deal
Al-manar
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrvov and Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu had made a landmark trip to Cairo in November aimed at reviving ties that had remained stagnant since Soviet times.
Diplomats in Moscow said Thursday's talks would focus on regional security issues such as the Syria crisis as well as trade and economic relations. But Moscow officials have confirmed that a large part of the discussions will focus on striking a massive new Russian arms delivery deal.
The head of Russia's state industrial holding company said after the Cairo meeting that Moscow was on the verge of reaching a landmark agreement to deliver air defense systems to Egypt's army.
The Soviet Union was the main supplier of arms to Egypt in the 1960s and early 1970s. Cooperation between the two sides dropped after the Zionist entity and Egypt signed a peace treaty and Cairo began receiving generous US aid.
But Washington suspended some of its military assistance to Egypt after the July ousting of democratically-elected Islamist president Mohamed Mursi. Analysts say that the Russian- Egyptian arms deal is meant to replace subsiding assistance from old ally Washington
