At the White House, US President Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will meet. Bilateral relations will be discussed, with the aim of strengthening and deepening them, but this will not be the only item on the agenda.
The Kingdom... a major reference point
The world, with all its issues and crises, and specifically the Middle East, will be on the table for Trump and Prince Mohammed bin Salman. From wounded Gaza to bewildered Beirut, and Damascus yearning for hope and a better future, to Sudan and the horrific massacres taking place, and finally to Baghdad and the anxieties surrounding its elections—all will be on the White House agenda when the two leaders meet.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is no longer just another country; it has proven itself a major player in every event and challenge, especially when it comes to development, the economy, and ending wars. Wherever the Kingdom is present, initiatives follow. This was evident in Gaza when the Kingdom mobilized over 150 countries under the banner of a two-state solution—a Palestinian state alongside an Israeli state, in accordance with international resolutions and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Everyone rushed to support this achievement, working to secure a ceasefire, which was subsequently achieved. This paved the way for a battle in politics and diplomacy, demonstrating a unified Arab and Islamic stance.
Lebanon's bet on the summit
In Lebanon, hardly three men can meet without saying, "We hope the White House meeting will avert renewed Israeli aggression." Lebanese people of all backgrounds and sects understand that only Saudi Arabia, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in particular, can persuade the American administration to restrain Israel from its aggression.
In Syria, it has become clear to everyone that Syria's security is intertwined with the Kingdom's, and that Syria's prosperity is inseparable from the Kingdom's. Saudi Arabia has consistently affirmed that, under the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, it is waging a battle on behalf of the state and its institutions against armed groups and their militias. This is a point of convergence between Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and US President Donald Trump. There will be no more armed groups in Arab countries, and no factions or weapons other than those of legitimate states and their official military forces. This is a firm and unwavering US-Saudi agreement. This is precisely what is being implemented in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq.
The meeting between Prince Mohammed bin Salman and President Trump at the White House is not just a Saudi-American summit. It is a global summit, its motto being development, the economy, stability, and peace.
Writing the future of the region and the world
The eyes of the entire world, and specifically the Middle East, will be fixed on the White House, where the Washington summit between the American president and the Saudi crown prince will be held. At that table, the aim will be to make peace in the world, and at that table, the features of a beneficial world will be drawn, a world without weapons, killing, or armed factions, but rather one with investments, development, and sound human development.
The White House was decorated with Saudi flags on the eve of the visit, a scene that inspires pride and honor in the hearts of Saudis first and foremost, and in the hearts of all Arabs and Muslims secondly.
