Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, held talks in Washington on Tuesday with US President Donald Trump on bilateral relations and current and future investment opportunities between their countries. Meeting Trump at the White House, he revealed a plan worth $200 billion for investment between Saudi Arabia and the US. He said that the United States and Saudi Arabia can tackle "a lot of things" together in the future, hailing the "very deep" relations between the two countries. “We are keen to bolster ties with the US and the foundation of our strong friendship,” he stressed, Prince Mohammed had arrived in the US on Tuesday as part of a three-week tour of the country. For his part, Trump highlighted the close US-Saudi ties. He noted that the relations were “strained” during former President Barack Obamas tenure but that he and the Crown Prince have become "very good friends in a short period of time." Ties with Riyadh are at the best they have ever been, he stressed. Trump said Saudi Arabia has been a great friend to the US and is a "great purchaser" and "investor" in its economy. He brought props to the Oval Office meeting to illustrate the close security partnership, showing reporters a sign that lists Saudi purchases and another of pending sales of military equipment to the Kingdom. Prince Mohammed and Trump also tackled counter-terrorism efforts, with the US leader saying that Washington has "zero tolerance" for funding of terrorism.
