Friday, 20 August 2021 | AP | Washington

The Biden administration has suspended all arms sales to the Government of Afghanistan following the Taliban takeover of the country. In a notice to defence contractors posted on Wednesday, the State Department's Political/Military Affairs Bureau said pending or undelivered arms transfers to Afghanistan had been put under review.

“In light of rapidly evolving circumstances in Afghanistan, the Directorate of Defense Sales Controls is reviewing all pending and ssued export licenses and other approvals to determine their suitability in furthering world peace, national security and the foreign policy of the United States,” it said.
