The Saudi media reported that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had spoken with President Trump, who made the kingdom the first stop on his first overseas presidential trip in 2017.

During the phone call on Wednesday January 22, the Saudi Crown Prince congratulated Trump on the formation of his new administration and expressed his country’s desire to increase investment and trade with the U.S. by up to $600 billion, or even more, during the next four years of Trump’s second term, should the opportunity arise.

Bin Salman does not clarify source of funds, offered in US president's first call with a foreign leader since returning to office; figure represents more than half of Saudi GDP
