“As President Donald Trump pushes to end the war in Ukraine and upend the order of the Middle East, one fellow world leader is at the heart of both initiatives: Saudi Arabia Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman,” Bloomberg reports.
“MBS, as the oil-rich kingdom’s de facto ruler is known, is one of the few global power brokers to enjoy a close relationship with Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, while most Arab heads of state see him as critical to tackling a more erratic Washington. That has positioned Riyadh as the most likely venue for a Trump-Putin summit on Ukraine, and puts Prince Mohammed at the heart of the regional response to Trump’s controversial proposals for war-ravaged Gaza.”
