Saudis will be ‘spending a lot of money on American companies for buying military equipment and other things,’ president says
By Diyar Guldogan
WASHINGTON (AA) - US President Donald Trump said Thursday that he will visit Saudi Arabia "probably" over the next month and a half.
"I'm going to Saudi Arabia...Normally you’d go to the UK first, and last time I went to Saudi Arabia," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
"I said, I'll go if you pay $1 trillion to American companies, spreading the purchase over a four-year period of a trillion dollars, and they've agreed to do that, so I'm going to be going there," he added.
Trump said he has a "great" relationship with Saudi Arabia
"They've been very nice, but they're going to be spending a lot of money on American companies for buying military equipment and other things,” he added.
- 'Ukraine wants to make a deal'
Trump's special Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff told reporters Thursday that Saudi Arabia will host a US-Ukraine meeting next week to discuss the Russia-Ukraine war.
Trump said Ukraine wants to make a deal.
"Ukraine wants to make a deal, because I don't think they have a choice. I also think that Russia wants to make a deal because in a certain different way, a different way that only I know -- only I know -- they have no choice either," he added.
Asked whether he is going to revoke temporary legal status for more than 200,000 Ukrainians in the US, he said he'll be making a decision "pretty soon."
"We're not looking to hurt anybody, and we're certainly not looking to hurt them, and I'm looking at that," he added.
