US President Donald Trump reached Qatar on Wednesday (May 14) -his second stop on a tour of West Asia. All eyes are on his Qatar trip as he is likely to receive a 'flying palace' as a gift. The 'flying palace' refers to$400 million - Boeing 747-8 jumbo - that Trump might receive from the Qatari royal family. Amid ethical and legal concerns, Trump said he planned to accept a plane from Qatar to be used as Air Force One as it is a "gift."
Trump also expressed his hopes about the Iran nuclear deal and said in Doha, "I have a feeling it’s going to work out." His remark came a day after Trump called Iran the "most destructive force" in the Middle East. "The biggest and most destructive force [in the Middle East] is Iran which has caused unthinkable suffering in Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq, Yemen and beyond,” he said during his visit to Saudi Arabia.
