US, Qatar deals to generate $1.2 trillion in 'economic exchange', White House says
May 26, 2025 7:54 AM

May 14 (Reuters) - Agreements signed by U.S. President

Donald Trump and Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani on

Wednesday will "generate an economic exchange worth at least

$1.2 trillion," the White House said in a fact sheet summarizing

some of the deals' details.

The agreements include a $96 billion deal with Qatar Airways

to buy up to 210 Boeing 787 Dreamliner and 777X airplanes with

GE Aerospace engines, the fact sheet said. They also include a

statement of intent that could lead to $38 billion in

investments at Qatar's Al Udeid Air Base and other air defense

and maritime security capabilities, it said.
