Croatia is selling 19,000 AK-47 assault rifles to the United States. The deal has been made, only the price has not been set yet, the Vecernji list daily reported. It is estimated that the price of the weapons could be at least two billion euros, depending on the state of the rifle and the probably lower price due to good partnership relations between Croatia and the United States.
The American reasons for making this deal are two: the lower price and the current state of equipment of Afghan troops that are mostly armed with various types of Kalashnikovs, which are assault rifles whose resilience and almost perfect performance in all weather conditions are well known.
It was interesting to see this article because we rarely or never hear about different countries' involvement with the US wars in our mainstream media.
