US and Saudi Arabia agree to $142bn weapons sale during Trump visit
US President Donald Trump has received a royal welcome after arriving in Saudi Arabia, his first stop of a three-day tour that will also see him visit Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Trump and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman sign an economic partnership agreement, as two countries announce cooperation in energy, mining and defence, among others. The Trump administration says that Saudi Arabia will invest $600bn in the United States, including through technology partnerships and a weapons sales agreement worth $142bn. A fact sheet shared by the White House on Tuesday explains that the agreement, which also includes collaboration in areas such as energy and mineral development, is the largest-ever weapons sale between the two countries.
