"While on the trip, the President will further our strategic objectives in the region, creating new opportunities that will strengthen the United States and our allies, while weakening our enemies," White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters at his daily news conference.

"This week, the President has been focused on meeting with the team, getting ready for the various stops that he'll be making and meetings that he's going to be having," Spicer said.
During his many conversations with world leaders, Trump has seen a great desire for America to reengage and be a leader once again in helping solve the world's complex problems, he said.
"He has already made moves, both behind the scenes with leaders and his public statements, to show them that America is reasserting its leadership on the world stage. These visits are another important part of this American resurgence," Spicer said.
