The United States knows that energy exports and arms sales are the two major economic pillars of Russia! Therefore, while preventing Russia's energy exports from being smooth, the United States has set its sights on Russian arms sales.
Indian fighter jet bidding is about to come to an end. In order to compete with Russia, Boeing directly threw out a $3.6 billion investment. As long as India purchases F/A-18 fighter jets, it can get Boeing's investment. Then, because Philippines canceled the order for Mi-17 helicopters with Russia, the United States directly rewarded the Philippines with US$100 million in order to reward the Philippines for this practice. Boeing sold 3.6 billion in the first place, and the United States rewarded 100 million in the second place. This is obviously a comprehensive attack on the rhythm of Russia's foreign arms sales!
Moreover, the United States now realizes that its face is no longer worth much! Russia's arms sales market continues to expand in non-Western countries, but with the rapid rise of non-Western countries, the United States' words are no longer effective. If you can be a human being, why do you have to be a dog for the United States? After all, the United States' weapons are basically sold to its allies. If you want to buy American weapons, you have to accept the conditions of the United States, which is increasingly unacceptable to non-Western countries.

is exactly the case. Among non-Western countries, it is actually difficult for the United States to compete with Russia! To this end, since the face is worthless, the United States will take out real money and use investment to grab Russia's arms sales orders, and use money to change the position of non-Western countries. If this is not working well, the United States itself can not use this order, but it also needs to ruin Russia's orders. As long as it does not purchase Russian weapons, it will be rewarded by the United States!
launched a comprehensive sniper on the Russian arms market, with a big stick on one hand and a sweet date invested and rewarded on the other hand, and there are still some effects! However, from the confrontation between the West caused by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and non-Western countries, we can see that the multipolar world has arrived, and non-Western countries have also possessed the ability to force the Western world. In this case, the American big stick cannot scare people, and sweet dates are no longer tempting!

Countries that have been involved in the war by the United States will become the driving force for non-Western countries to arm themselves. If they do not have the ability to create advanced weapons themselves, Russia will be regarded as an option. Because weapons from Russia are not only without additional conditions, but also have a very high cost performance! Moreover, American weapons can be found in Russia. Even the fifth-generation machine has been taken out. Not only non-Western countries will look at Russia, but even the United States' allies are shaken.
is like Türkiye . Why do you need the S-400 air defense system under the pressure of the United States? It is because you don’t look down on the “Patriot” air defense system! As for the United States not selling F-35 fighter jets to Türkiye, that doesn't matter. Türkiye is planning to build its own fifth-generation aircraft. If it really doesn't work, it can still buy Russian Su-75 fighter jets. Therefore, the United States’ idea of sniping Russian arms sales and these methods today are probably difficult to succeed!

Moreover, the United States keeps staring at Russia, which will make Europe laugh to the end! The Boeing F/A-18 fighter, its main opponent in India is actually France's Rafale fighter. The Indian Navy also released news that it would choose one of these two fighter jets. Then, after the UAE did not get the F-35 fighter, it went back to buy the Rafale fighter! European weapons will further open up the market around the world, not only will it seize the US market share, but it will also further enhance Europe's military influence.
This may pose a greater threat to the United States than Russia! The United States wants to control Europe through , NATO . If Europe's own military technology continues to increase, it will only further get rid of its military dependence on the United States. If the United States does not need protection, then NATO will have no meaning of existence, and the United States will further lose control of Europe! (Paper Airplane)
