() President Donald Trump is being called a “dealmaker” by his administration amid his first stop in Saudi Arabia as part of his four-day Middle East tour seeking $1 trillion in deals. 

Harrison Fields, special assistant to President Trump, told “The Hill” that Trump is bringing economic prosperity not only to the United States but also to its allies, including in the Middle East. 

“This is why we’ve seen over $8 trillion of investments pouring into the United States since the president took office, and this is why you’re also seeing massive partnerships with the Middle East and American companies, because the president is a dealmaker,” he said. 

Qatar Airways is set to announce that it secured an agreement to purchase 150 aircraft from Boeing while President Trump is in Doha on Wednesday, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to .

Trump will travel from Saudi Arabia to Qatar in the early afternoon Wednesday, local time, and participate in a state visit, followed hours later by a state dinner.

On Tuesday, Trump secured $600 billion in investments from Saudi Arabia, which involved the Saudi Arabian company DataVolt moving forward with plans to invest $20 billion in artificial intelligence data centers and energy infrastructure in the U.S. The $600 billion deal included a $142 billion defense and security agreement that equips Saudi Arabia with state-of-the-art war equipment provided by dozens of U.S. firms.

Fields said Trump is the “boldest commander in chief” the nation has had because he is starting his journey in the Middle East. 

“He’s doing something that most presidents wouldn’t dare to do, which is communicate with the region that has long been forgotten, and many people just throw money and throw weapons at it and just look the other way,”  he said. 

“The President wants to build stability in a region that has just been war-torn, and we need to strengthen our relationships with the Middle East.”
