Default Re: UAE Port Deal

Hi Nepa,

Port security is handled by the Coast Guard. So even if this deal goes through we won't be trusting the UAE to handle port security.

The UAE does provide us with a base for our U2 spy planes and other important military assets.

Although I am not thrilled its the UAE, at least its not France or Germany.
