Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will visit United States President Donald Trump at the White House on 18 November. The visit comes amid a push from President Trump for the expansion of the Abraham Accords, aiming to normalize diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel. However, Saudi Arabia has maintained that normalization with Israel would depend on a clear path to a Palestinian state. The leaders are also expected to discuss the US-Saudi defence agreement. The visit underscores the enduring US-Saudi strategic partnership, particularly in security and energy, and the discussions regarding the Abraham Accords could have a significant impact on regional stability in the Middle East.
