Trump green-lights sale of stealth jets to Middle East power

President Donald Trump has announced his intention to approve the sale of advanced stealth fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, coinciding with the visit of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman to the United States. This move would make Saudi Arabia the first Middle Eastern nation, aside from Israel, to access these jets, potentially shifting the region's military balance. The announcement has prompted concerns from Israel, which has requested that any agreement be tied to progress on normalizing relations between the two countries. While the deal signals deepening ties between the United States and Saudi Arabia, analysts caution that congressional review and other hurdles could delay or block the sale. The Trump family's business interests in Saudi Arabia and new development projects have also drawn attention amid these diplomatic discussions.
