To be honest, this move doesn’t sit well with me.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has announced Qatar’s Air Force has received approval to build a facility at a U.S. Air Force base in Idaho.

The location of the new facility will be at Mountain Home Air Base in Idaho.

The agreement between the U.S. and Qatar will also allow pilots for the the Qatari Emiri Air Force to train alongside U.S. troops.

CBS News reported more inside information on the move by the Pentagon:

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Friday announced a finalized agreement that will allow the Qatari Emiri Air Force to build a facility at the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho.

The agreement, which Hegseth announced alongside Qatari Minister of Defense Sheikh Saoud bin Abdulrahman Al Thani at the Pentagon, will allow Qatari pilots to receive training alongside U.S. soldiers. There are no foreign military bases in the U.S., but some foreign militaries do maintain a presence for training. The Singaporean Air Force also has a presence at the Mountain Home base.

Hegseth said he is “proud that today we’re signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emiri Air Force Facility at the Mountain Home Air Base in Idaho.”

“The location will host a contingent of Qatari F-15’s and pilots to enhance our combined training, increase lethality, interoperability, it’s just another example of our partnership,” Hegseth said. “And I hope you know, your excellency, that you can count on us.”

The move is another demonstration of the Trump administration’s increasingly close relationship with Qatar.
