European countries have said Italy will not sell arms to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. They will no longer allow new arms sales to the Saudi alliance. European countries have been selling arms to Saudi Arabia and its allies since the start of the war against Yemen on March 26, 2015. Meanwhile, as the war continues, there has been a terrible humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen. There is no food, no medicine. That is why European human rights groups have criticized Europe for participating in the aggression.
