Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is scheduled to meet President Trump at the White House on Nov. 18, on what will be his first Washington visit of Mr. Trump's second term, as the Gulf nation seeks a defense pact with the United States, sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.

The crown prince, often referred to by his initials MBS, was last at the White House more than seven years ago, although the two leaders met in May this year during the president's four-day Middle East trip aimed at bolstering economic ties, ending the Israel/Gaza war, and discussing a possible agreement to end Iran's nuclear program.

At the November White House meeting, they're likely to discuss deals made in May, and military and intelligence sharing between the two countries.
