Saudi crown prince to visit White House for F-35 sale talks

SUMMARY

President Trump will welcome Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to the White House. This marks the Crown Prince's first U.S. visit in seven years. Trump announced plans to sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, stating “Yeah. No, I am planning on doing that.” This deal could shift military dynamics in the Middle East.

The visit may also lead to new defense and economic agreements, focusing on oil, security, and technology partnerships. However, concerns persist due to the Crown Prince's alleged involvement in the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Trump will host a formal dinner for the Crown Prince as discussions progress.
