Hagel outlines new weapons sale plan for Gulf

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is opening the door for the US to sell missile defense and other weapons systems to a group of US-friendly Gulf nations. The move is intended to help counter Iran's ballistic missiles, even as global powers ink a nuclear deal with Tehran.

 

In a speech to Gulf leaders Saturday, Hagel makes it clear that the emerging agreement that would limit Iran's nuclear program doesn't mean the security threat from Tehran is over. (AP)
