True to its promise of being underpinned by primary business concerns, the ongoing visit to the Persian Gulf Region by American President, Donald Trump, Wednesday night, yielded a handsome harvest for leading aircraft maker, Boeing of America.
This followed the initialling lm of a deal between Boeing of America and the Qatari Government for the purchase of 210 units of 784 wide body aircraft.
The deal, one of the major offshoots of the visit of President Trump to Qatar, represents the single biggest order in the history of the aircraft builder.
Deliveries are expected to be effected over several years, and would significantly boost the fleet of public sector commercial air transporter, Qatar Airways.
Aside from the deal, officials of both the American and Qatari governments also initialled several other agreements, including those in the military and security sectors as well as in Artificial Intelligence (AI), all of which are to cost in excess of $1 trillion ( about N160 trillion , that is approximately the sum of the total annual budgets of the Federal Government for seven years at the current rate).
Trump , who is on a four- day visit to the core Arab states, is currently in Qatar, after touching down in Saudi Arabia, and is due in the United Arab Emirates(UAE) later tonight
