President Trump says the United States will sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. He confirmed the deal just before meeting Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House. Trump called the country a "great ally." This is the Prince’s first visit to Washington in seven years. The leaders plan to discuss defense and nuclear power. However, some officials worry about the sale. They fear Saudi Arabia might share the jet's secrets with China. Israel is also concerned that this deal could hurt its safety in the Middle East.
