U.S. President Donald Trump will host Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House on Nov. 18, marking the crown prince’s first visit to the presidential residence in seven years.

The Saudi Foreign Ministry said in a Nov. 17 post on X that the crown prince, widely known as MBS, would meet Trump “to discuss bilateral relations, ways to strengthen them across various fields, and issues of mutual interest.”
