Kuwait, 19 May, 2025 :Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar have pledged $4 trillion in investments in the U.S. over the next three years, signaling a deepening strategic and economic alliance with Washington. The commitments follow recent high-level visits by the U.S. President to the region.
The investments are expected to enhance regional security and economic stability, with a potential U.S.-Iran deal also on the horizon to help stabilize oil prices. Gulf nations, grappling with budget deficits due to low oil revenues, are looking to offset domestic challenges through foreign investments and defense partnerships.
Kuwait is also ramping up its global investment presence, targeting the U.S., Europe, and Far East markets—including Japan and China—with plans to invest up to $40 billion. The move aims to boost its oil, refining, and petrochemical sectors.
The visit marked a historic milestone, including what is believed to be the largest weapons purchase ever secured during a single state visit.
