Ronald Lauder greets Trump in Qatar

On May 14, 2025, during his Middle East tour in Doha, U.S. President Donald Trump made history as the first sitting American president to officially visit Qatar.
The visit followed Trump's earlier stop in Saudi Arabia and aimed to strengthen U.S.-Qatar relations, focusing on regional peace and lessons from Qatar’s 2022 World Cup hosting amid past controversies.
Trump met with Qatar’s leader, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, who welcomed him upon arrival. Their discussions focused on advancing peace initiatives, strengthening economic ties, and culminated in signing agreements, including a $96 billion deal for Boeing aircraft purchases.
The White House announced that economic agreements totaling $1.2 trillion were reached, and noted that the Boeing contract will generate more than 1 million U.S. Jobs over the course of production and delivery.
The visit reinforced diplomatic and economic ties with Qatar and highlighted ongoing U.S. Support for regional stability while enabling large-scale business partnerships between both countries.
