US Senator Blocks Arms Sale to Hungary Over Sweden's NATO Bid Delay
TL;DR Summary
Hungary abandoned plans to purchase High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) from the United States after bilateral talks failed to produce an agreement. U.S. Senator James Risch of Idaho recently said he blocked the sale of 24 HIMARS weapons to Hungary due to its government's refusal to agree to Sweden's accession to NATO. Hungary's latest announcement demonstrates the growing distance between the Hungarian government and many of its Western partners.
