Military Equipment Can’t Buy Peace: Zarif


WASHINGTON (Dispatches) -- Iranian Foreign Minister Muhammad Javad Zarif says a recent U.S. arms deal with Saudi Arabia will fail to guarantee lasting security for Saudi Arabia as claimed by the U.S. Department of State.
"If past performance is an indicator of future success, another $110 billion worth of weapons will neither reduce ‘the burden’ on the American military nor support ‘the long-term security of Saudi Arabia’,” Zarif said in an opinion piece published on the New York Times on Friday.
