Trump arrived in Abu Dhabi on Thursday after concluding his meetings in Qatar. Upon his arrival, he held talks with UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. He announced more than $200 billion in additional investment deals, spanning industries critical to U.S. economic and national security, including aerospace, aluminum, artificial intelligence, energy, and nuclear technology, among others.

During the trip, however, there was a collapse of potential peace talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Turkey. Trump had hinted several times that he might attend the proposed talks in Istanbul following his Gulf visit. As recently as May 15, when asked about his next destination, he replied, “destination unknown,” signaling that he could stop in Istanbul for talks.

Ultimately, Putin didn’t attend the peace talks. “I think it’s time for us to just do it,” Trump told reporters during the business roundtable, referring to peace efforts.
