Trump earns the $ 142 billion weapons deal on the Saudi visit, and lifted sanctions on Syria

US President Donald Trump said that the United States “does not have a stronger partner” from Saudi Arabia during the first major foreign trip – a visit to the Gulf states mainly focused on increasing investment.

The first day of the tour witnessed that the two sides announced a $ 142 billion weapons deal (107 billion pounds), in addition to other investments that the Saudi crown prince ultimately said, which could be worth one dollar.

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman met in the airport runway and gave an honorary guard for Arab horses to accompany his presidential lime.

In a speech later, Trump said, “I love him so much.”

There is an end to what this friendship can offer.

Trump was briefly briefly dealt with the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas.

He said to those who attend that people in Gaza deserve a “better future”, which was chosen by Hamas who chooses “kidnapping, torture and a goal” for “political ends” – in reference to the October 7 2023 attack on Israel.

Trump also announced that he was raising the sanctions on Syria to improve the new government in the country, a step proposed by Muhammad bin Salman.

“Oh, what I do for the crown prince,” said the American leader.
