The &#8220;Davos in the Desert&#8221; conference in Miami, where Trump delivered a lengthy speech, was a clear signal of this new relationship.

Are we witnessing a new era of alliances driven by money and investment rather than history and political ties? And can Mohammed bin Salman capitalize on this relationship, or is it merely a drain on the kingdom\u2019s billions?
