MAGA makes landfall in the Middle East…
President Donald Trump, speaking in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, praised growing peace across the Middle East and urged the region to choose prosperity over Iran’s “self-destructive” path.
In his Riyadh address following a meeting with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Trump reaffirmed America’s strong partnership with Saudi Arabia and slammed past Western “interventionist” policies that, he said, brought chaos to the region.
“If the responsible nations of this region seize this moment, put aside your differences and focus on the interests that unite you, then all humanity will soon be amazed at what we will see here in the geographic center of the world, and the spiritual heart of its greatest faiths,” Trump said.
“Before our eyes, a new generation of leaders is transcending the ancient conflicts and tired divisions of the past, and forging a future where the Middle East is defined by commerce, not chaos; where it exports technology, not terrorism; and where people of different nations, religions, and creeds are building cities together, not bombing each other,” he added.
“It is crucial for the wider world to note, this great transformation has not come from Western interventionalists flying in with lectures on how to live or how to govern your own affairs. The gleaming marvels of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation-builders, neo-cons, or liberal non-profits like those who spent trillions failing to develop Kabul and Baghdad,” he continued.
