Trump described the deal, stating it is <em>&#8220;the most important order of planes in the history of Boeing.&#8221;<\/em> This massive agreement signifies a staggering <em>&#8220;more than $200 billion for 160 planes&#8221;<\/em>, equivalent to 178 billion euros.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph\">\n    However, scrutiny surrounds the pricing details of such an order. While Boeing has stopped publishing a catalog price, based on the previous value of its most expensive model, the **Boeing 777X**, estimates for a contract involving 160 long-range aircraft hover around $70 billion. This markedly contrasts with Trump\u2019s assertion of costs exceeding $200 billion. Industry analysts emphasize that airlines typically receive significant discounts for bulk purchases, casting further doubt on the president&#8217;s claims.\n<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article__sub-title\">A Series of Agreements Signed Alongside the Emir of Qatar<\/h2>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph\">\n    In addition, the **White House** revealed that Boeing and General Electric **Aerospace** have finalized agreements with the Qatari firm, amounting to $96 billion for the acquisition of 210 Boeing 787 **Dreamliner** and **777X** aircraft. The White House emphasized, <em>&#8220;This historic agreement will support 154,000 American jobs per year.&#8221;<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph\">\n    During Trump\u2019s visit to **Doha**, a series of agreements were signed in collaboration with the emir of Qatar, **Cheikh Tamim Ben Hamad Al Thani**. Some agreements focused on defense, including the procurement of **MQ-9B drones**.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph\">\n    Nevertheless, Trump\u2019s visit to Doha has not been without controversy. The **Democratic opposition** in the United States has criticized the billionaire president for accepting what they describe as <em>&#8220;the biggest foreign financial bridge in recent history.&#8221;<\/em> At the center of this criticism is a controversial Boeing 747-8, reportedly gifted to Trump by the Qatari royal family to replace his official aircraft, at least temporarily, for use during and after his presidency.\n<\/p>\n<section class=\"catcher catcher--favoris\">\n<div class=\"catcher__content\">\n        <span class=\"catcher__title catcher__title--hide\">Read also |<\/span><br \/>\n        <span class=\"catcher__desc\"><br \/>\n            <span class=\"icon__premium\"><br \/>\n                <span class=\"sr-only\">Article reserved for our subscribers<\/span><br \/>\n            <\/span><br \/>\n            The lucrative deals of the Trump family in the Arab-Persian Gulf: luxury tours, Boeing 747 gifted by Qatar\u2026<br \/>\n        <\/span>\n    <\/div>\n<p>\n        <button class=\"lmd-btn-icon lmd-btn-icon--primary lmd-btn-icon--m js-lmd-dropdown-favorite-toggler\" \n                aria-controls=\"lmd-dropdown-favorite\" \n                aria-label=\"Read later\" \n                aria-describedby=\"article-title-3421387\" \n                data-article-id=\"3421387\"><br \/>\n            <span class=\"icon__favorites\"\/><br \/>\n            <span class=\"js-btn-icon-tooltip\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Read later<\/span><br \/>\n        <\/button>\n    <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"author\">\n<p class=\"author__detail\">\n        <span class=\"author__name\">The World with AFP and Reuters<\/span>\n    <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"article__reactions\">\n    Reuse this content<br \/>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" rel=\"dofollow\">Breaking News General &#8211; 1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The American president, Donald Trump, and the emir of Qatar, Cheikh Tamim Ben Hamad Al Thani, in Doha, on May 14, 2025.
