Abstract

Abstract: This dissertation addresses first and foremost the intricate charade ofthe US relationships with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia over time, devoting focal emphasis on the impact of Trump's Administration on US-Saudi Arabia relations through analyzing the political, economic, and military aspects. The vast, different political systems, world-views, and cultures have been repeatedly questioned. Recently, visible fissures in the partnership over Iran’s nuclear deal and counter-extremism in the Middle East have raised concerns about its future capability. Nonetheless, as evidenced by US President Donald Trump's visit to Riyadh in May2017, the relationships appear to be as strong as ever. The present paper investigates the unique characteristics of the US-Saudi relationships that have ensured stability in the face of clear divisions. This is accomplished by reviewing a brief history of both countries in order to better understand US-Saudi relations. In addition, this research considers the relationships’ impacts on the election of US President Donald Trump. It; also ,identifies the key drivers of the US-Saudi partnership in the political, economic, military, and security spheres. Using a descriptive-analytical approach, the researchers seek to determine how relationships between both countries, with opposing values, remained entwined through shared interests.
