Prince Trump and Saudi Basque Crown in friendship during the visit to Eriyad

The plenary premises of Karlton -Rytan -Ryada was stuffed to the edges on Tuesday, when the guests were waiting for the arrival of US President Donald Trump and Prince of the Saudi Crown Mohammed Bin Salman.

Participants of the US-Saudi Investment Forum included dozens of the most powerful executives in the world, including Elon Musk, Nvidia ‘S jensen huang and Black‘S Larry Fink to name a few.

The security of the event has twisted guests – billionaires and junior consultants – in the plenary to wait for tensions, while Saudi and US leaders held their meetings.

“We were closed in the plenary session three hours before they appeared,” said Tarik Solomon, the head of the American Saudi Business River in Riyadh, CNBC. “Nothing talks about diplomacy as strategic patience.”

The guests described funny scenes as Fortune 500 executives sat on the floor due to lack of places.

“They put the executives on stage and for three hours, and they didn’t have to sit nowhere. So they looked like, sitting on the ground, literally, crossed their feet, talking to each other, which was a funny scene,” said one of the participants who asked to remain unknown from professional restrictions when they spoke to the press.

“The event was really disorganized,” the guest said, but testified in the room when the president came on stage.

“It was strange while being in this room. No matter what you talk about Trump, he’s a star. He knows how to work in the room.”

Trump performed alone on stage, while patriotic Lee Greenwood “is proud of being an American” who played volumetric speakers before performing in a about a 50-minute speech that covered the US relations with the region, but largely focused on his inner age.

“I feel that I just attended Trump’s first rally,” another participant said, also anonymously speaking with professional restrictions.

The American leader devoted most of his speech to praise the Saudi Kingdom, with whom he has used a warm relationship for many years, and where he made his first state visit in 2017 during his original White House term.

“Riyadh becomes not just a place of government, but also the main business, cultural and high-tech capital around the world,” Trump said.

“Mohammed, are you sleeping at night? How are you sleeping?” “He said, referring to the 39-year-old prince who was sitting directly in the audience. “Critics doubted that it is possible that you have done, but over the last eight years Saudi Arabia has proved that critics are completely wrong.”

The crowd applauded, as Trump said, “He is your greatest representative, the greatest representative. And if I didn’t like it, I would come out so quickly. You know that he knows me so well. I really like it. I love him too.”

Bin Salman was sitting on the president, often putting his hand on his heart in gesture.

“That’s why we give so much, you know? Too much,” Trump is smiling. “I like me too much.”

Saudi on social networks expressed honor for their actual leader’s relationship with the US president, and regional analysts noted the big difference between the relations of this administration with the Kingdom and the Baden administration, which was much cool.

“Trump and MBS? This is arrogance for centuries,” said one of the CNBC summit participants, citing the prince of the Crown with his initials.

The main news event was Investment announcement of $ 600 billion Saudi Arabia in the United States, including a record $ 142 billion transaction to purchase US weapons.

“Overall, the mood was very optimistic,” Solomon said from the US Chamber of Commerce. “The right people were in the room, and this time the deals felt less performed.
