The White House issued a press release earlier outlining agreements it said tallied up to US$600 billion. Full details of the announcements were not immediately available.
President Donald Trump said Saudi Arabia would commit to investing US$1 trillion ($1.3 trillion) in the US, a key goal of his first scheduled foreign trip since returning to office.
“If you take a look at other presidencies, they wouldn’t do US$1 trillion, sometimes in years. We did this in essentially two months,” Trump said during a Saudi-US investment summit in Riyadh.
