Trump’s visit

There’s much to celebrate about the historical deal and revision of relations between the US and Saudi Arabia. US president Trump’s decision to choose Saudi Arabia as the first destination on his maiden foreign trip, and decision to address a large gathering of leaders from the region underline the importance he accords to these relations. The world is aware of the situation in this region. Trump’s support in fighting against terrorism will greatly help in solving problems here. Apart from all of these developments, Saudi Arabia’s astute diplomatic skills are greatly admirable. — Vijayan S. Kallunad, Dubai
