Qatar TV: the United States issued a warning to Egypt for a contract with the Russian Federation on Su-35 fighters

The Qatari Al-Jazeera TV channel is reporting on the continuation of the American policy of sanctions pressure in the field of military-technical cooperation of other countries. Recall that the United States previously adopted a package of CAATSA laws, which provides for the introduction of various kinds of restrictions on countries that acquire weapons and military equipment from Russia. In fact, this is a clear instrument of unfair competition.

Qatari observer Mahmoud Sami recalls that a few years ago Russia and Egypt signed a contract for the supply of 4 ++ Su-35 generation fighters. At the same time, it is argued that Egypt then turned to Russia, "as they expressed doubts about the readiness of the United States to supply more modern American F-35 fighters for Cairo." Also, the Egyptian authorities intend to continue the diversification of arms supplies so as not to depend on one supplier in this regard.

According to Qatari TV, the United States rejects such actions of official Cairo. Washington would like the Egyptian Air Force to acquire 35-generation American fighters instead of the Russian Su-4s. However, Cairo does not agree with this.

Now the US administration, as reported by Al-Jazeera, is clearly making it clear that it could exert sanctions pressure on Egypt if it continues to buy the Su-35 from Russia. The material says that the United States "issued a warning to Egypt for a contract with the Russian Federation on Su-35 fighters." Moreover, this warning was made by the new US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. The US said they "expect from Egypt" a freeze on the implementation of the contract. In turn, Cairo is trying to find a way out of this situation so as not to end up under American sanctions.

Qatar TV: USA issued a warning to Egypt for contract with Russia on Su-35 fighters

Didn't the Americans issue warnings one after another to sovereign countries? Now Egypt, earlier Turkey and India for the S-400. The same policy as Trump. The United States will soon be left with a nose. All of them will be sent to hell.

[Pereira]

Maybe they will send it someday. But sending is hard enough today.

Egypt has the Suez Canal. So, if desired, Egypt can threaten the United States with retaliatory sanctions. If Faberge is allowed. Chasing warships from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf is an unpleasant task (remember Rozhdestvensky).

[postum]

It’s not funny for you to suggest such a development option. The United States provides Egypt with military aid to an average of 1 billion evergreens, the main sponsor of Egypt is Saudi Arabia, one of the main allies of the United States. The Egyptian economy is firmly embedded in the Western system. And then they will ruin everything for themselves because of the summer, what would that?

[AlexeyEg]

If they don't send it now, further .. it will be even more difficult.

other sovereign countries

The fact of the matter is that there are practically no sovereign countries. There is only 1 hegemon, and the rest, in one way or another, depend on him.

[Herman 4223]

This hegemon, one way or another, rapes the whole world. It will end with the fact that at his funeral there will be world dances.

[Rurikovich]

So everyone seems to like it when they are raped. They also moan at the same time. As you put yourself, so they will treat you. "Stockholm Syndrome". Only a few people fight back such "love" ...

As long as the peoples tolerate it or think that it should be so and it does not concern them. It will remain so, and the printing press will always be able to print pieces of paper on the authorities' top so that they are happy.

Just now there was a scandal in the West over the murder of journalist Khashogi by a Saudi prince, it turned out that the interests of the United States are above human rights. They will be friends with the Saudi despotism.

Qatar TV.
Qatar as a state is sometimes called a "barking mouse" (according to Satanovsky) because it is very rich because of oil and climbs literally in all matters where they ask and do not ask. I mean, his "Al-Jazeera" is still that propaganda media resource.
How they propagated ISIS! Well, after all, this "caliphate" Qatar financed ...

Let's take a look at the relationship between Egypt and Qatar. Diplomatic relations were severed in 2017 following the quarrel between Qatar and Saudi Arabia and the boycott of Qatar by Arab countries. But literally on January 20, 2021, they were restored through a memorandum.

And after that, shifts began in the editorial policy of Al-Jazeera, this generally complimentary article about the Egyptian contract for aircraft appeared. Egypt defends its "interests" and the like.
There is no point in arguing, it is. But the system of relations in the Middle East has always been exclusively kunyunkturny!

"And after that, shifts began in the editorial policy of Al-Jazeera, this generally complimentary article about the Egyptian contract for aircraft appeared. Egypt" defends its interests "and the like."

Most likely, this is the article of Al-Jazeera political order.

But for Qatar, the issue of purchasing Russian weapons is a sore subject.
They themselves planned the purchase of Russian air defense. Their Americans, Saudis and the same Egypt bent down and forced to refuse. The Saudis, their neighbors and sworn brothers, also planned something on the account of the 400, in the end they did not risk it.
Now Egypt ...
Aljazeera's Qatari audience is clearly gloating, sitting with popcorn and watching what will happen to Egypt.

So such an article appeared in Al-Jazeera in any case, it's just that the question is very interesting for them, as for those who have been in a similar situation.

The British authorities did not like the characteristics of the American fifth generation F-35 fighter-bombers. London decided to terminate the contract for the purchase of 90 combat vehicles.

financing the Tempest instead of buying an F-35 is a direct reduction in the potential of the British Air Force over the next 20 years in exchange for industrial and economic benefits in the British air force, it seems the Saxons are giving the Americans a cigarette, so as if Egypt does not have these planes for free ... if he wants to

So they seem to have not abandoned the contract yet, and since the Egyptians are thinking about how to avoid sanctions, then they intend to remain within the framework of its (contract) implementation. If Egypt declares that in the event of strengthening the dictate on the part of mattresses, it will abandon the entire line of American weapons and switch to purchasing similar weapons in China and Russia, then the "hegemon" will calm down, limiting itself to imitation of sanctions. completely losing the Egyptian market is not in his interests. Ankara has clearly demonstrated that "Not so scary heck those. hegemon, as he paints himself with his sanctions "and in defiance of the mattresses is going to duplicate another purchase of the S-400.

Egypt is not Turkey, unfortunately, they will abandon the star-striped ones and immediately the next Arab spring will come, regardless of the season.

Competition in American style is something like this: Bring the barrel of a revolver to the buyer's head and say that if you don't buy this rusty 40-year-old six from me at the price of (well, for example) a new Lada, you will be left without a head!

[Cowbra]

Get used to it))) This is not yet the Saudis have not rolled out to you for the next shelling of oil storage facilities, which your "best in the world" Patriots slept through again. Your layouts around the world are proving their worthlessness - you yourself refuse them. So the sanctions will only lead to the fact that not only will they stop buying weapons from you, but they will drive you everywhere.

If there is no metallurgy in a country, there is no country. Trump, two years ago. I am not going to argue at the level of formalism. I can prove with the same success that there is no state at all, if I find fault with the commas. The wind carried the sand from one border to another - the state does not exist, because it cannot hold its land.

I wasn't going to argue. I could not comprehend your idea, I asked again. As a result, I got even more confused.

[rotmistr60]

there may be sanctions pressure on Egypt if it continues to buy the Su-35 from Russia

American sanctions pressure is a test for the presence of sovereignty in the country and the existence of its own opinion, which the country is ready to defend. And there are only few such countries in the world. Today in Europe the Brussels bureaucrats are trying with their stupid restrictions and orders to bring the EU countries to a unified attitude to everything that happens.

What Coca-Cola, McDonald's and other numerous American companies are doing in Russia

They provide services to the population in the field of catering, replenish the budgets of the constituent entities and make it possible to catch up with similar Russian companies in terms of the quality of services provided ...

captured the lion's share of the Russian market

If they occupied the lion's share of the Russian market, they would have come from the FAS RF long ago ...
Another thing is that the Russian Federation does not have such such transnational companies as you indicated, at best federal ...
People go to those establishments where they are provided with the best services, I myself almost never go to McDonald's, but young people go, so they like it ...
Now, for example, I ordered lunch at "Kroshka-Kartoshka" for 300 rubles, because I am very busy, and so I usually go to a small restaurant near work with Georgian cuisine ("business lunch" - 290 rubles) where they are fed home and there is no desire to go somewhere else ...
And those companies that you indicated are monsters in the area where they have been working for decades, and all over the world ...

I’m wondering if at least one commentator knows what interstate agreements were concluded between the United States and Egypt. And after all, Egypt receives financial assistance from the Kemmid Agreement as well as Israel. Imagine that Assad, receiving money from Russia, spends on the purchase of weapons in Iran and China. I would have looked at how they commented.

[Pavlos Melas]

Al-Jazeera is the Qatari channel Qatar is an ally of Turkey, and Egypt is not very much. So the Qataris are interested in the deterioration of Egypt's relations with either the Russian Federation or the United States ... So what kind of plane Egypt will have is definitely not to learn from the Qatari media.

[Spkrdctr]

You must realize that the USA is in serious decline. China is number one in economy, military production and economics with the Belt and road plan. The USA needs to partner with Russia to offset the Chinese domination of the world that is happening. The problem is that the younger under age people in the USA see Communism (China) as a good thing. They think communism is the best and as the older over 55 age people die off, the USA will be moving towards socialist / communist government. America has become weak and is in a long term decline.

In turn, Cairo is trying to find a way out of this situation so as not to end up under American sanctions.

There is only one way out - to send the United States hard and continue its policy, but they will bend and then fulfill the will of the United States, and not defend their interests.

The contract with Indonesia, there are 11 cars and a little over 1,5 billion. dollars, plus now Egypt ...

Egypt is now moving more troops to the border with Libya, where a clash with the Turkish army could occur. Egypt is Saudi Arabia, Turkey is Qatar, that's why Qatari news is following news from Egypt and apparently rubbing their hands rather.
Qatar is a sponsor of the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist organization founded in Syria. In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood, with the support of Qatar, came to power, and then were removed from power by the military supported by Saudi Arabia, the United States and France. Qatar is the main sponsor of Erdogan and Turkey's operations in Libya and Syria, in the latter it finances a number of Islamist groups, primarily Jaysh al-Fatah.

In an effort to undermine one of the sources of Egypt's foreign exchange earnings after the military came to power and the Muslim Brotherhood ousted from power, Qatar organized an explosion on board the Kogalymavia liner that flew from Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg on October 31, 2015. As a consequence Egypt suffered significant losses, but for some reason our Emir of Qatar hasn’t been hanged by the eggs for some reason.

The Egyptian Air Force is qualitatively not much inferior to the Turkish Air Force, but is numerically superior, and the ground forces are also quite strong and sufficiently equipped. The delivery of our Su-35 would significantly increase the capabilities and superiority of the Egyptian Air Force over the Turkish Air Force. We will not have time to deliver Su-shki within the framework of the current exacerbation, which is now, although unlikely, but in principle can also develop into a direct clash between the Egyptian army and the expeditionary corps of the Turkish Armed Forces. But in any case, in the long term, the Su-35 would significantly increase the capabilities of the Egyptian Air Force and would strongly land Turkey, forcing it to pursue a more restrained policy in the region, or otherwise, in the event of a conflict, would lead to its defeat.
Outwardly, everything is now moving towards the normalization of relations between Qatar and other Arab countries in the region, primarily with Saudi Arabia and the UAE, as well as Turkey and Saudi Arabia have started talking about normalizing relations. But this is all outwardly, while internal contradictions remain and have not gone anywhere, and will constantly serve as a source of conflict. Since Qatar does not represent a serious force, everywhere it will push Turkey forward, and here the opportunity to break the latter should not be missed.

[OgnennyiKotik]

Add Britain to the equations. Qatar has no subjectivity, in fact it is the gas company of England. The alliance between Britain and Turkey is unequivocally formed.
Another dispute over the Mediterranean. Turkey, Libya, Egypt seem to have agreed.

Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar commented on relations with Egypt:
It is very important that Egypt respects the borders of Turkey's continental shelf in the Eastern Mediterranean [more details here]
Turkey and Egypt share common historical and cultural values
New events related to Egypt may occur in the coming days
Ankara is open for negotiations and with Greece to solve problems through dialogue in accordance with international law

Libyan Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeiba:
"Libya won a significant share of gas fields in the eastern Mediterranean thanks to the agreement signed with Turkey"

All this is bullshit. Egypt has no money to pay with for a long time, it has a negative balance of $ 25 billion. With the Russian Federation, a negative trade balance of -5,3 billion dollars. in 2019 and 6,6 billion in 2018 and 5 billion dollars in 2017, which is 17 billion dollars in the last three years alone. It will only get worse further. The supply of food, weapons and the construction of a nuclear power plant to Egypt is a crime that attracts fraud.

Sometimes the point is not in the financial capabilities of the buyer, but in the interests of the seller.

First. The sale of weapons provides jobs for more than a dozen modern enterprises and more than one thousand citizens of their country, who in turn, consuming products and services, also provide jobs for an even larger number of citizens of their country.

Second. The supply of weapons to a particular region, to either side, significantly changes the balance, either creating an advantage or equalizing opportunities. This is politics, and the right policy brings huge dividends, against which sometimes 1-2 billion can simply be written off without hesitation.

And the third thing. Arms supplies for export load and support military-industrial complex enterprises, preserving technologies and, most importantly, personnel, that is, preserving our independence in matters of arming our own army.

Well, palm oil, "the very same", most often does not get to us on the market, but is sold sometimes even on the buyer's domestic market, or in other markets. And the fact that our products are worthless - well, they will answer you, but there is no shortage as in the 80s and 90s, and they fed the whole country. The fact that they were fed with poison is already a matter of mortality and deviations of future generations. The logic is simple: "we would have to stand for a day, but we could hold out for the night," and then: "We would, we would, we would, we would all go to the bottom, There would, there would be, there would be, there would be to drink wine ... "- it's not without reason that ours love vineyards and wine factories
