Trump and a number of regional leaders visited the new Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology Sunday, the heart of which is a giant wall, filled with screens displaying real-time online extremist activity.
More than two hundreds data analysts also worked on their individual computer screens.
Trump and the king each placed their hands on a miniature globe that officially activated the center and launched a splashy welcome video.
The White House did not immediately provide information as to any U.S. Involvement in the creation of the center.
The project began two years ago, before Trump took office.
