Trump to meet Gulf leaders in Riyadh this month, Saudi government source says

In May 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to hold discussions with the heads of the six member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council during his visit to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The meeting comes after the Saudi kingdom’s top diplomat visited Washington in April to lay the groundwork for the forthcoming trip and to address shared regional and international issues.
During the April talks, officials reviewed regional issues including Gaza, Sudan, Yemen, the Russia-Ukraine crisis, and efforts to strengthen political and economic cooperation.
Trump's trip, scheduled May 13–16, marks his first foreign visit of his second term and follows U.S. Approval of a $3.5 billion missile sale to Saudi Arabia.
This meeting aims to reinforce strategic ties amid regional tensions and supports U.S. Objectives such as Saudi-Israel normalization and countering Iranian influence.
