Trump “fell asleep” in an armchair during his visit to Saudi Arabia – Watch the video

The uncomfortable incident starring the US president - Trump seemed exhausted and tried in vain to keep his eyes open

Newsroom May 13 06:30

During his visit to Saudi Arabia, United States President Donald Trump signed a “strategic economic agreement” with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Indeed, during the signing ceremony, Trump appeared particularly tired of falling asleep, closing his eyes while listening to an official read out the details of the deal.

After the ceremony was over, he quickly left the room.
