The White House announced that President Donald Trump secured economic exchanges with Qatar worth $1.2 trillion, a figure which includes a historic order for Boeing airliners.

Boeing and GE Aerospace received a $96 billion order from Qatar Airways as President Trump looks to boost investments in defense and aircraft in the Middle East after reaching artificial intelligence and tech agreements on Tuesday.

As part of a $96 billion deal, GE Aerospace will provide engines for up to 210 American-made Boeing aircraft ordered by Qatar Airways.

Boeing secured major orders in the Middle East during a visit to the region by President Trump, and China lifted a ban on its airlines taking deliveries of Boeing planes.

Qatar Airways committed to acquiring as many as 210 widebody jets in a deal projected to be worth $96 billion, supporting over 150,000 jobs.

Qatar Airways places record-breaking order for 210 Boeing jets, boosting U.S. jobs and expanding its global fleet of fuel-efficient widebody aircraft.

President Donald Trump defended Qatar gifting the U.S. a jet to use as Air Force One as the new fleet is still under construction.
