Description

Yemen has been an important partner in the fight against al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), a terrorist group based in Yemen that continues to plot against U.S. citizens and interests. To assist in countering the AQAP threat, the Department of State (State) committed $48 million of the $108 million allocated in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) funding from FY 2007 through FY 2014 to Yemen. This report reviewed U.S. security assistance to Yemen. It describes (1) the status of U.S. FMF-funded equipment for Yemen that remains in a private warehouse in Virginia; and (2) the steps the Department of Defense (DOD) has taken to resolve the final disposition of the equipment. Color photos. This is a print on demand report.
