During President Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia, he was honored with lavish ceremonies, including a traditional welcome and a golf cart ride with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The event emphasized the strengthening ties between the two leaders amidst previous tensions following the Khashoggi incident. Trump announced nearly $1 trillion in Saudi investments into the US and a $142 billion arms deal. The visit reflected the strategic partnership and personal diplomacy, with Saudi officials closely managing the media coverage to avoid controversies.
Trump hailed what he said were pledges of nearly $1 trillion in new Saudi investments in the US and pledged to sell $142 billion in weapons to the kingdom.
The use of the golf cart likely was a point of personal diplomacy to cap off the shows of affection to Trump, an avid golfer known for using that transportation.
