US President
Donald Trumpet on the domestic front reached Saudi Arabia on the first foreign
trip on Friday. During this time, he will deal with the sale of weapons worth $
110 billion (7090 crore) from Saudi Arabia.
Since Trump
has become a US President, his team is focused on relations with Russia. Trump
is facing allegations of pressure on FBI director James Kome to stop the
investigation itself. Trump reached Riyadh with his wife Melania, daughter
Ewanka and son-in-law Jered Kushner, where he was received a grand reception at
the airport. Saudi ruler Qul Salman himself came to receive him.
Melania
looked without hijab
Melania came
out of the Air Force One without any head cover, like other foreign
celebrities. There is a tradition of covering women in Saudi Arabia. Trump is
the first US president, who has chosen a Muslim country for the first foreign
trip.
Trump's
son-in-law interfered in Saudi deal
Trump's
son-in-law, Jared Kushner, had called a Lockheed Martin official to reduce the
cost of a deal worth billions of dollars from Saudi Arabia. The New York Times
disclosed this in a report.
According to
the report, when Kushanar came to know that Saudi Arabia could withdraw from
purchasing this system due to high costs, then he called Lockheed Martin's CEO
Marilyn A. Hughes. He asked Hueson if the company could reduce the price. On
this, Husson talked about re-thinking on prices. This interference from the
Kushanar has strengthened the allegations on the Trump administration that
their administration is ignoring formal procedures in functioning.
Obama tried
to create a disturbed relationship
During
Barack Obama's reign, relations between the US and Saudi were worsened. Obama
had refused to help Saudi in the military campaign of Yemen as he entered into
a nuclear deal with Iran. Obama's refusal to support Egypt's president Hosni
Mubarak's coup and direct action against Bashar al-Assad also did not come right
to the Saudi rulers.
Attempts to
improve relations with Muslim countries
After
campaigning and becoming President, Trump, who is targeting Muslims and Muslim
countries in the matter of terrorism, is trying to improve relations with
Islamic countries through Riyadh Yatra. Saudi Arabia is the most powerful
country in the Middle East and is the leader of Sunni factional nations. After
the killing of thousands of civilians in the Saudi military campaign, the
leaders of Shia-dominated countries have been aggressive against Iran.
