Rep. Ilhan Omar, D‑Minn., laid out a scathing attack on Pres­i­dent Trump’s for­eign pol­i­cy Fri­day, argu­ing his Mid­dle East agree­ments weren’t actu­al­ly “peace deals” but arms deals that should be reversed by the next administration.

“[Trump] recent­ly inked so-called ‘peace deals’ between the Unit­ed Arab Emi­rates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel,” Omar tweet­ed, refer­ring to deals that pre­ced­ed Trump earn­ing two Nobel Peace Prize nominations.

“The only prob­lem?” she added. “They weren’t peace deals. They’re arms sales to human rights abusers, designed to empow­er the Gulf States and increase the risk of war with Iran.”
