During his Middle East tour, President Donald Trump announced that the US has secured $10 trillion in investments, including $42 billion in military purchases from Qatar and a $10 billion investment to enhance Al Udeid Air Base. This visit marks the first by a US president to Qatar since George W. Bush in 2003 and is part of a broader Gulf tour that began in Saudi Arabia and will conclude in the United Arab Emirates.
