Schumer Won't Oppose New Dubai Deal
Sen. Chuck Schumer released the following statement on the expected approval of a deal allowing a Dubai-owned company to buy nine defense manufacturing plants in the United States:
"There are two differences between this deal and the Dubai Ports deal. First, this went through the process in a careful, thoughtful way; and second this is a product not a service and the opportunity to infiltrate and sabotage is both more difficult and more detectable. Unless new information comes out, I will not oppose this deal."
