As he met Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, President Donald Trump teased that he would soon had a big statement. Trump did not provide the information, but he did say it might not be about business but that it will be” as big as it gets.” Carney who spoke last said he was on the fringe of his chair, even though it might not get in connection with Canada. What exactly is this” really earth-shattering” issue that Trump teased, though? According to Trump,” We’re going to, as you know, the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, we’re going to, we’re going to, we’re going to, we’re going to UAE and Qatar, and that will be, I guess, Monday night,” and this is in relation to his Middle East journey. Some of you are, in my opinion, coming with us. We’re going to have a very, really great announcement to make, like as big as it gets, and I didn’t say on what, but it’s very good, and I’d even tell you if it was negative or positive, I can’t keep that up. It is genuinely positive, and the announcement will be made either on Thursday, Friday, or Monday before we depart. However, it will be one of the most significant announcements about a particularly significant subject in recent memory. He declared,” We’re going to have a great announcement,” but I’m not necessarily stating that it’s going to be on trade. We’re going to have a fantastic announcement over the next few days, one that will be so, so incredible, and so positive. I don’t want you to think it’s going to be on trade just to finish, but I want to say that.
Changing the name of the Arabian Gulf to the Persian Gulf
According to multiple US officials, Trump is expected to declare that the United States will start referring to the Persian Gulf as the Arabian Gulf or the Gulf of Arabia, according to The Associated Press. And he will make this announcement while he is in Saudi Arabia. However, it’s not known whether this renaming is the ominous announcement that Trump teased and guarded with utmost caution yesterday.
Trump refers to the Persian Gulf as the Arabian Gulf in all of his travels.
Trump referred to the waterway’s known name as the Persian Gulf in the campaign year. Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s foreign minister, blasted any attempt to rename the Persian Gulf and claimed that it would have no meaning if it didn’t involve the wrath of all Iranians.
