- πΊπΈ The US is planning to sell advanced F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, a move considered unlikely under previous administrations.

Investment and Economic Ties

- π€ Both Saudi Arabia and the US are motivated to engage in these deals, with Saudi Arabia seeking US engagement in the Middle East and the US benefiting from investments.
