President Donald Trump is giving Disney’s next big move a glowing endorsement. During remarks made on a trade visit to Abu Dhabi, Trump praised the newly announced Disneyland Abu Dhabi project, saying, “Disney – I see their new theme park is going to be incredible.

According to reporting by Forbes, Trump highlighted Disney while listing major American companies expanding their presence in the region. His comments came during a week-long Middle East trade mission that reportedly secured over $200 billion in deals for the U.S., including major agreements with Etihad Airways and ExxonMobil.
The upcoming Disney park will be the first of its kind in the Middle East and will be located on Yas Island, a premier entertainment and cultural destination in Abu Dhabi. The project is being developed in partnership with Miral, the powerhouse behind other major attractions like Warner Bros. World, Ferrari World, and SeaWorld Yas Island.

Trump’s remarks were later shared by Miral CEO Mohamed Al Zaabi, who posted a clip to social media with the caption, “What a theme park, even presidents talk about it.” With Disney planting its flag in one of the region’s fastest-growing tourism hubs, it’s no surprise the buzz is reaching the highest levels.
As more details unfold, Disneyland Abu Dhabi is shaping up to be a major global milestone for Disney’s international portfolio—earning high praise before it even breaks ground.
