BIS Undersecretary McCormick Visits Israel to Discuss Export Controls
Globes, an Israeli business publication, reports on Undersecretary of Commerce for Industry and Security David H. McCormick's recent trip to Israel. During his trip McCormick met with Israeli defense and export control officials and companies that export dual-use and defense products.
McCormick stated that Israel is only at the preliminary stages of implementing an arms exports control program and still has a long way to go. He indicated that the U.S. is offering aid to Israel to develop and implement arms exports controls.
Israel recently declared that, while it was not yet a signatory to the Wassenaar Arrangement, it would comply with its principles and international norms.
