During his first visit to kingdom, US President Donald Trump received gifts from Saudi King Shah Salman worth of $ 1.2 billion, reported Nawa-e-Waqt.
According to details, the gifts given by Saudi King included a precious diamond, armband made of pure gold with King Salman’s photo imprinted on it and 25 kilogram heavy sword made of pure gold with different diamonds and stones on it.
The sword is worth of $ 200 million.
Furthermore, gold and diamond made watches, worth of $ 200 million, were also gifted to Trump and his family.
A small replica of Statue of Liberty but made with gold, diamond and precious stones will also be sent to White House soon.
Meanwhile, one of the major roads in Riyadh has also been named after Trump.
A 125 meter long yacht, which is world’s tallest personal yacht as it has 80 rooms with 20 royal suits, will also be sent through US navy to America.
As pointed out by The Nation no other US President has ever been given such lavish gifts.
And if they had they would likely have refused them, or accepted them only on behalf of the American people and then surrendered them to the government. Because you know, they're illegal.
We have no heard exactly what became of THESE particular gifts yet, but if we know Trump he will not give them up willingly.
Of course let's not forget that with his son-in-law's help Trump also negotiated an almost 110 billion dollar arms deal with the Saudis as well.
