It says final details of the largest arms-sales deals in history are still being worked out, but the package will include between $ 98 billion and $ 128 billion in arms sales and over 10 years, total sales could reach $ 350 billion.

When President Trump will arrive in Riyadh this week, he will also lay out his vision for a new regional security architecture White House officials call an “Arab NATO”.
