Context

President Trump is expected to meet Gulf leaders next week, that's according to Axios. The meeting is reportedly set to take place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. Meanwhile, oil held its steep drop after reports suggested Saudi Arabia will return to about half the capacity of its damaged East-West pipeline within days. Megan Sutcliffe, Principal Analyst for the Middle East and Africa at Sibylline spoke to Bloomberg’s Abeer Abu Omar on Horizons Middle East & Africa on the attacks in the region. (Source: Bloomberg)
