Trump believes that without him Israel and Saudi Arabia would have disappeared

American leader Donald Trump suggested that Israel and Saudi Arabia would have been wiped off the face of the earth if he had not held the post of U.S. president.

"I have done a lot for Saudi Arabia. I protect Saudi Arabia. If I were not president, Saudi Arabia would not exist right now, nor would Israel. They would have been wiped off the face of the earth," he said in an interview with Time magazine.

Trump added that he has excellent relations with the leadership of Saudi Arabia. "But remember, if I were not here, there would be no Saudi Arabia. There would be no Israel," the American president emphasized.
