    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Commerce is delaying the preliminary decisions regarding the investigations into imports of a chemical called hexamethylenetetramine from China, Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia. Originally due by March 10, 2025, these decisions will now be postponed until April 29, 2025. This postponement comes after a request from the petitioner, Bakelite LLC, to allow more time for a thorough review of the information related to the cases. The final determinations will be made 75 days after these new preliminary determinations, unless there is a further delay.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Department of Commerce is taking longer to decide about some special rules for buying a chemical from China, Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia because a company asked for more time to gather all the information. Now, instead of deciding in March 2025, they will decide in late April 2025.

    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 105019
    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Department of Defense has announced a proposed arms sale to Saudi Arabia, focusing on a training program for the Royal Saudi Air Force and other Saudi forces. This program includes flight, technical, and military education, and aims to cover civilian casualty avoidance, human rights, and command and control. The training is valued at approximately $1 billion and will strengthen Saudi Arabia's defense capabilities, helping them align more closely with U.S. military practices without affecting the current military balance in the Middle East. There is no principal contractor, and training will be managed by U.S. government or contracted personnel.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Department of Defense wants to help train Saudi Arabia's air force, teaching them important skills like flying and being careful not to hurt people who aren't fighting. This training, which costs a lot of money, will make sure they work well with the U.S. military, but some people are worried about how the money is being spent.
