Trump reaffirmed the strong US-Saudi relationship during a meeting with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, stating it was an honor to spend several days together. This public display of diplomatic ties may signal increased cooperation on energy policy, which could influence global oil prices.

Crypto traders should closely watch further US-Saudi policy announcements for potential market-moving catalysts.
