U.S. President Donald Trump is planning to visit Saudi Arabia in mid-May on his first foreign trip of his second term, Axios reported on Sunday citing two U.S. officials and a source with knowledge of Trump's travel.

President Donald Trump is planning to visit Saudi Arabia in mid-May 2025, marking his first foreign trip since returning to the White House for a second term. The visit aims to strengthen US-Saudi relations, focusing on securing a substantial investment from Riyadh into the U.S. economy, including military equipment purchases.

Mr. Trump told reporters earlier this month that he was considering making the visit, noting that traditionally, presidents often make their first foreign trip to the U.S.-allied United Kingdom. A visit to Saudi Arabia in May 2017 also marked the first foreign trip of Mr. Trump's first term.
