This decision raises many questions in itself, because the US presidents usually choose countries for their first visit, which play an important role in their strategic and economic alliance. But why did Trump give his priority to Saudi Arabia? Is it just a diplomatic step, or is it a sign of growing relations between America and Gulf countries?
For the first time also guests were built in Saudi Arabia
Even in Trump’s last term, his first foreign trip was Saudi Arabia. Now once again he has chosen Saudi Arabia for his visit, where he will try to strengthen the relationship with Gulf countries.
White House officials say that in this visit, mainly foreign investment, deepening relations with Gulf countries and peace installation in the Middle East will be discussed. In a recent high -level dialogue, this visit was discussed between American and Saudi officials and this journey has also been a part of the discussion on Ukraine War.

Trump said in the White House on 6 March about his Saudi Arabia visit, "I am going to Saudi Arabia. Last time he invested $ 450 billion. This time I told him that for this visit, he should invest a trillion dollar for American companies in four years. They have agreed to this, so I will go there."
further strengthening relations with Gulf countries aims to objective
Through this journey, Trump will once again try to strengthen his relationship with Gulf countries. However, the generalization of relationships between Israel and Saudi Arabia is currently on the ‘back burner’, as Riyadh says that the establishment of Palestinian state should be given priority in this scheme.
