Ripple is expanding its influence in the Middle East, with a significant presence at the Dubai Fintech Summit and partnerships in the region.
President Trump's recent Middle East tour included strategic meetings and agreements, such as a $142 billion defense deal with Saudi Arabia and a $1.2 trillion commercial deal with Qatar.
Accompanying Trump were top U.S. business leaders like Elon Musk, focusing on strengthening economic partnerships with the Middle East in various sectors.
The tour has raised ethical concerns regarding potential conflicts of interest and ongoing regional tensions, despite efforts to enhance economic and diplomatic ties.
