Trump inks ‘biggest arms deal in history’ to supply Saudi Arabia with $142bn of ‘state-of-the-art’ weapons
DONALD Trump has inked the biggest arms deal in history to supply Saudi Arabia with $142bn worth of weapons, the White House says.
The sale is part of a landmark $600 billion deal with Jeddah that was signed after Trump landed in Riyadh to kickstart his Middle East tour on Tuesday.
The deal would improve the defence capabilities of Saudi, including its military academies.
Energy, mining, space, and sport are also part of the gigantic agreement - which fell short of Trump's $1tn goal.
