‘I Love Working With Trump’ Says Saudi’s Prince Mohammed Bin Salman

If Saudi Arabia, which has been making one billion dollars a day from oil, wants our help and protection, they must pay dearly! NO FREEBIES.

 

Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has praised the kingdom’s relationship with the current US administration just days after President Donald Trump warned that the Middle East country would not survive “two weeks” without US support.

The crown-prince told the US-based Bloomberg publication that he loves working with Trump, with addition to the statement that against extremism, extremist ideologies and terrorism, the two leaders had achieved a lot in the Middle East.
Any friend will say good and bad things, both, so one must ultimately have a room for acceptance, said the 33-year-old while including that it was normal for allies to have disagreements.

“So, you cannot have 100 percent friends saying good things about you, even in your family. You will have misunderstandings. So, we put that in that category.”

At a Mississippi campaign rally on Wednesday, Trump took a jab at Riyadh and said the country would not last “two weeks” if Washington withdrew its military support.
Trump criticized that they protect Saudi Arabia but would we call them rich? He said he loves king Salman and he is also protecting them but without Trump, they won’t be able to make it where they are within two weeks.

If Saudi Arabia, which has been making one billion dollars a day from oil, wants our help and protection, they must pay dearly! NO FREEBIES.

In 2015, Trump said that Saudi Arabia should pay more if it wants US protection. So, it was not forthe first time that Trump had criticized Saudi Arabia over such issues.

 

Trump’s criticisms have not been limited to Saudi Arabia alone. In his speech to the UN General Assembly, the US president in a similar vein cautioned other unnamed countries against taking advantage of the United States.
“Moving forward, we are only going to give foreign aid to those who respect us and, frankly, are our friends. And we expect other countries to pay their fair share for the cost of their defence,” Trump said at the time.

 

“Trump is speaking to his own people inside the United States of America about an issue. And you’ve got the answer now from me.”
