Since the beginning of his second word president Donald Trump has shown that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is 1 of the key partners for him. It was Riyadh, the capital of this country, that served the Americans and the Russians for the first authoritative talks in respective years concerning the situation in Ukraine.
