Donald Trump: On the Qatar leg of the same trip he told American troops at Al Udeid Air Base that Qatar had signed defense purchases worth $42 billion, and Qatar Airways agreed to buy up to 210 Boeing widebody aircraft. On the United Arab Emirates leg he said the country would invest $1.4 trillion in the United States over the following decade, largely in artificial-intelligence infrastructure, and the visit produced an agreement letting the country import up to 500,000 of Nvidia's advanced chips a year from 2025 to 2027, potentially worth about $15 billion, reversing tighter Biden-era limits that had been set over the risk of the chips reaching China.
