President Donald Trump concluded his four-day tour of the Gulf with a warm message at Qasr al Watan in Abu Dhabi, calling the visit “really amazing” and lauding “tremendous investment" in the U.S.

After stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, Trump told reporters he will “probably” return to Washington on Friday — but said his final destination remains uncertain.

“Almost destination unknown,” Trump said. “They’ll be getting calls: ‘Could you be here? Could you be there?’” Earlier, he had floated the possibility of stopping in Istanbul to attend Ukraine peace talks, though no official announcement followed.

Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump reflected on the diplomatic reception: “I shook more hands than any human being is capable of doing. They were starving for love because our country didn’t give them love. They gave them a fist pump. Remember the fist pump in Saudi Arabia?”
