President Donald Trump announced today in Saudi Arabia that Riyadh is set to invest $600 billion in the United States, a significant step in enhancing the strategic relationship between the two nations.
According to a White House statement, this partnership’s initial agreements aim to bolster energy security, strengthen the defense sector, support US leadership in technology, and enhance access to global infrastructure and critical minerals.
One of the largest investments comes from Saudi Arabia’s DataVolt, which plans to invest $20 billion in building artificial intelligence data centers and energy infrastructure within the U.S.
In addition, major US technology firms such as Google, Oracle, Salesforce, AMD, and Uber are committing to invest $80 billion in innovative technologies across both nations.
American companies including Hill International, Jacobs, Parsons, and AECOM will manage infrastructure projects totaling $2 billion in US services, encompassing King Salman International Airport, King Salman Park, The Vault, and Qiddiya City.
Historic Defense Agreements
The White House is also highlighting the largest defense arms deal in history, valued at nearly $142 billion. This initiative will provide Saudi Arabia with advanced military equipment and services from over a dozen US defense contractors.
The package encompasses five critical sectors: aerospace technologies, air and missile defense systems, naval security, land border protection, and the modernization of military communications and information systems.
In addition to weapon systems procurement, the agreement includes extensive training and technical support to enhance the capabilities of the Saudi armed forces, particularly within military academies and medical services.
As highlighted in the statement, “This agreement signifies a major investment in Saudi Arabia’s defense and regional stability, built on US systems and training.”
Collaboration in Energy and Technology
In conjunction with these efforts, the US Department of Energy and the Saudi Ministry of Energy have signed an agreement to develop and finance energy infrastructure. Additionally, a memorandum of understanding has been established for collaboration on the mining and processing of critical minerals to bolster supply chain resilience.
Alongside energy initiatives, NASA and the Saudi Arabian Space Agency have agreed to launch a CubeSat as part of the Artemis II mission to monitor space weather conditions.
The White House emphasized that “the deepening partnership between the United States and Saudi Arabia embodies a mutual vision for long-term prosperity and job creation in both nations.”
