JOINT BASE ANDREWS, United States, May  12, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - US President
Donald Trump left for Saudi Arabia Monday, on what he called a "historic" tour
of the Middle East that will mix urgent diplomacy on Gaza and Iran with huge
business deals.

Air Force One took off from Joint Base Andrews near Washington for a
journey that will include visits to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates -- and
possibly talks on the Ukraine war in Turkey.
