Donald Trump announced a landmark deal where Boeing secured a $96 billion agreement to supply Qatar with up to 210 jets, marking the largest order in the company's history. This aviation agreement, which is a part of broader economic accords worth over $243 billion, is estimated to support 154,000 American jobs. Alongside this, Trump addressed ethical concerns regarding Qatar's gift of a luxury aircraft, stating that American prestige hinges on having an impressive plane. The timing of the visit follows a lucrative deal for a resort with Qatar, raising further questions about conflicts of interest.
Trump emphasized that the purchase of Boeing jets was not just a deal but a statement of American prestige. He believes we should have the most impressive plane, comparing it to Gulf monarchies' aircraft.
Despite ethical concerns over accepting gifts from Qatar, Trump dismissed them, highlighting that the deal supported American jobs and strengthened economic relations with the Gulf state.
