How will the Trump Administration’s “America First” arms sales strategy reshape the defense export landscape? Jessica Thibodeau and Matthew Thrasher, Counsels in Fluet’s International Trade Practice, explore this question in their latest Law360 article, “What US Arms Sales Reforms Mean For Defense Industry.”
Their article provides a critical analysis of recent executive orders establishing the Promoting American Military Sales Task Force and the significant policy shift reorienting arms transfers from a foreign policy tool to a mechanism for strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base.
Jessica and Matthew bring nearly 30 years of combined government/military experience to this analysis, having most recently served at the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Defense. Their unique perspective offers essential insights for industry stakeholders seeking to understand the practical impact of these reforms on defense export processes.
