‘Another win for America’: Trump announces economic pact with Qatar worth $1.2 TRILLION
Already multiple trillions in foreign investment in the United States had been secured by the administration of President Donald Trump, most of that in his first 100 days in office.
Then this week there was announced an economic plan with Saudi Arabia worth about $600 billion.
Then on Wednesday the White House announced a pact with Qatar worth “at least $1.2 trillion.”
It’s “another win for America” in Trump’s campaign promises to bring back “Made in America” and his predicted “new Golden Age of prosperity.”

Already, his tariffs program has secured a long-term agreement with the United Kingdom and a promising temporary agreement with China.
“By securing these investments, President Trump is spurring a manufacturing renaissance, driving economy growth, and creating high-paying jobs across the nation,” the White House stated.
While critics and other doomsayers predicted Trump would trigger, immediately, a recession with his economic actions in pursuit of a fair world trade market for Americans, the nation’s stock market today is just about where it was before the campaign was launched.

Several parts of Trump’s deal with Qatar involve manufacturing, as there is a $96 billion agreement for Qatar to acquire up to 210 American-made Boeing 787 Dreamline and 777X aircraft powered by GE Aerospace engines.
The report said it’s Boeing’s largest-ever widebody order, and the White House calculated that it will support 154,000 U.S. jobs annually.
Other deals involve liquid natural gas production, and quantum technologies.
It also “advances” Qatar’s defense investment in the U.S., locking in its procurement of state-of-the-art equipment from two leading U.S. defense contractors, Raytheon and General Atomics.
Both of those deals involve drone technology.
Further, the two nations agreed on a statement of intent “to further strengthen our security partnership, outlining over $38 billion in potential investments including support for burden-sharing at Al Udeid Air Base and future defense capabilities related to air defense and maritime security.”

Other chapters of the agreement involve goals in the Qatar National Vision 2030 which opens opportunities for U.S. businesses in a number of ways.
Billions also are forecast to be invested in U.S. hotels and tourism, information technology, advanced manufacturing, financial services, and oil and gas.
