US President Donald Trump thanked Saudi Arabia on Wednesday for hosting talks between Washington and Moscow last week, calling the Kingdom a “special place with special leaders.”
Speaking at the opening of the Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute, Trump said it was “a tremendous honor” to be the first American president to address the FII Institute.
The US president singled out Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his efforts in this regard.
“But in particular, we have to thank [Crown] Prince Mohammed bin Salman for hosting these historic talks that went very, very well,” Trump said.
Trump doubled down on his recent criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy saying he “loves” Ukraine, but slammed Zelenskyy for doing “a terrible job.
“His country is shattered, and millions and millions of people have unnecessarily died.” Trump said he hopes there will be a ceasefire soon to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
The conference Trump spoke at is being held in Miami, Florida, from Wednesday until Friday.
Launched in 2017, FII brings together investors, policymakers, government officials and international private sector executives from across the globe.
The event is an extension of the Kingdom’s plans to diversify its oil-dependent economy by bringing together changemakers and discussing partnerships and policies for and in a rapidly evolving landscape.
