Trump Rolls Out Red Carpet for Saudi Crown Prince in Lavish White House Event
US President Donald Trump welcomed Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman with an elaborate White House reception. The event featured a military flyover and a black-tie dinner attended by high-profile guests from sports, technology, and finance. First Lady Melania Trump made a rare public appearance, drawing attention in a green gown that echoed the colours of the Saudi flag.
The visit began with a grand arrival, where President Trump extended full diplomatic honours. A military flyover marked the prince’s entrance, followed by a formal reception on the White House lawn. The evening then shifted to a lavish dinner, blending the formality of a state occasion with the exclusivity of a private gathering.
The evening concluded with a display of US-Saudi relations at their most ceremonial. Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s visit included all the trappings of a state visit, despite his status as crown prince. Melania Trump’s appearance, though brief, added a layer of intrigue to an event already heavy with symbolism and high-level networking.
