Patrick Mancino, Executive Vice President of the National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations (NCUSAR), praised U.S. President Donald J. Trump for selecting Saudi Arabia as the first destination of his second presidential term. He stated that this decision reflects a strong acknowledgment of the Kingdom's strategic importance on both regional and global levels.
In remarks to the Saudi Press Agency, Mancino noted that beginning the president's foreign tour in Saudi Arabia signals Washington's recognition of the Kingdom's central role. He emphasized that Saudi Arabia is not only the spiritual heart of the Islamic world—home to the two holy mosques—but also a major political and economic force in the Middle East and across the broader Islamic world.
Mancino also pointed to Saudi Vision 2030 as a transformative national strategy led by the Kingdom's leadership. He described it as a bold blueprint for progress, driving forward innovation and development across education, the economy, and the non-profit sector.
Looking ahead, the NCUSAR vice president expressed optimism about the future of U.S.-Saudi relations. He said the enduring partnership between the two nations is poised to reach new heights and contribute to a lasting legacy of cooperation and mutual achievement.
