GOP celebrates the 4th of July in Russia, announces $550B arms purchase & trade [View all]
The deal to purchase Russian S-400 anti-aircraft missiles and 112 SU-30 fighters over a four year period, is reported to be worth $550B. It is the first step the GOP says it is taking in rebuilding America's military while repairing relations with Russia.
Richard Shelby (R-AL), said during open meetings with Russian lawmakers and officials that president Obama was too strict with our former cold war adversary and president Trump has insisted on replacing our aging frontline aircraft and other systems with state of the art Russian military technology. This "new deal" accomplishes that goal.
Also part of the deal, is to trade 40 F-22 Raptors for two container ships loaded with Russian vodka. - GOP_Traitors.com
