In #Mideast, #Trump plans to focus on #business deals, not #geopolitics
Trump leaves Monday for a 4-day trip to #SaudiArabia, #Qatar & the #UAE, a mission that is expected to focus heavily on business deals & new investments from the #oil-rich region.
The swing through deep-pocketed #MiddleEast monarchies, Trump’s first major international travel of his 2nd term, is a marker of Trump’s priorities & another sign of his intention to de-emphasize the traditional #US #allies.
