The Biden Administration has been secretly imposing temporary limits on drone strikes (planes and non-triple) attacks on terrorists and insurgent forces in Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq. The announcement was made publicly on the 20th of January, the day of President Joe Biden’s inauguration.

In the first term of Obama, with Vice President Biden, an important escalation is being made in the selective assessors using long-distance piloted aircraft. In its second period, significant restrictions were imposed on this practice. The bids adopted by Biden since being transferred to the White House have practically paralyzed this type of operation.
