사우디 아라비아 한테는 트럼프 정권의 3인자가 직접 가격인하 협상을 챙기는 데, 한국을 챙기는 인사가 없네요.
아, 한국한테는 산것도 아닌 데 미국 대통령이 10억달러 돈내놓으라고 친히 챙기지요.
Kushner called Lockheed CEO to get a better arms deal for Saudi Arabia

President Trump's senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner personally called the CEO of Lockheed Martin during a meeting with a Saudi delegation earlier this month to ask her to cut the price of a missile defense system, The New York Times reported Thursday.
The call was part of Kushner's effort to secure a roughly $110 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia before Trump's scheduled trip to the kingdom on Friday.
During the meeting with the delegation, Kushner determined that cost could prohibit the Saudis from purchasing a THAAD missile defense system, which is designed to shoot down intermediate-range ballistic missiles.
So in an unorthodox move, Kushner phoned Marillyn Hewson, the chief executive of Lockheed Martin, which manufactures THAAD, and asked her if her company could lower the cost of the antimissile system. She reportedly told him she would look into it, according to the Times.
