It could help US companies boost sales of mili- tary and commercial drones in an increasingly competitive global market. The change also follows stern warnings by top US officials about rapid advances in weap- ons technology by China, Russia and other potential foes, includ- ing unmanned systems. China has its own ambitious drone program and has exported drones to at least nine countries, including Pakistan, Egypt and the United Arab Emir- ates, while it is also in talks with Saudi Arabia and Algeria for sales, according to Chinese state media. The new policy will make it easier for America's closest allies to buy armed drones, while main- taining stringent controls on the overall technology, US officials said. Under the policy, buyers of military drones will have to agree to strict conditions, including ad- herence to international law, and a ban on using the drones for unlaw- ful surveillance or to crack down on their domestic populations.
