What does US$1.4 trillion look like?
Try imagining the UAE rolling out a gold-plated welcome mat—for business.
During a high-profile meeting at Abu Dhabi’s presidential palace.
UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan told former US President Donald Trump that the Gulf nation plans to invest a jaw-dropping $1.4 trillion.
This investment will go into the U.S. economy over the next ten years. No, that’s not a typo.
Top Investment Areas?
The massive investment will flow into cutting-edge sectors like clean energy, AI, advanced tech, and space exploration.
“The US remains a strategic partner—on Earth and beyond,” Sheikh Mohammed said.
He cited joint efforts in astronaut training, Mars missions, and even asteroid belt projects.
Trump, fresh off visits to Saudi Arabia and Qatar, wrapped up his Gulf tour with a stop in Abu Dhabi.
It was the first visit by a U.S. president since George W. Bush in 2008.
After a ceremonial welcome and a stroll through the stunning Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
The focus turned to business, security, and long-term partnership.
Sheikh Mohammed summed it up best: “This visit will profoundly shape our future ties.”
With this kind of financial firepower behind it, the future of U.S.-UAE relations isn’t just promising—it’s practically orbiting.
