President Donald Trump has landed in Saudi Arabia as he begins his first foreign tour since taking office.
He touched down in the Middle East this morning, hours after tweeting about his excitement for his first 'big foreign trip.'
Trump flew to the capital Riyadh overnight on Air Force One – becoming the only president to make Saudi Arabia, or any majority Muslim country, his first stop overseas as president.
His
arrival following a 6,700-mile flight was met with the pomp usually
reserved for the likes of a Papal welcome in South America.
The
president got the red carpet treatment – literally – and some airport
workers took off their shoes before manicuring it with brooms in
97-degree heat.
