Following a momentous official visit that included the establishment of a strategic economic alliance with the Kingdom, participation in the Gulf-US Summit and Saudi-US Investment Forum, and a historic meeting with Syria’s new leadership, US President Donald Trump left Saudi Arabia on Wednesday. On the second stop of his three-nation Gulf tour, which also includes the United Arab Emirates, Trump arrived in Qatar.
President Trump was greeted by Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, concluding a two-day visit that both parties have hailed as momentous in both scope and result.
Trump travelled abroad for the first time during his second administration. The Crown Prince met him at the airport on Tuesday morning, and throughout the visit, the two leaders had several high-level meetings.
Trump and the Crown Prince inked the Strategic Economic Partnership between the two countries at the Saudi-U.S. Summit, which they co-chaired at Al-Yamamah Palace. Numerous agreements and memoranda were exchanged during the summit, which focused on bilateral ties and regional security. These areas included defence, energy, justice, health, space, and scientific research.
