Out of town report #9: Qatar spray

Pool was brought into the conference room of the plane at 8:25pm.

POTUS was seated in the middle with the Emir to his right and the PM to his left.

Trump called the Emir "one of the great rulers of the world" who is “beloved and respected.”

He added that the PM “has been my friend to the world” and that the duo play a crucial role in peace to the Middle East.

Did not take questions. Pool ushered out at 8:27pm. Transcript to come.

Thanks to Erica Green and Trevor Hunnicutt for the assist.
