US President Barack Obama hosts youthful Saudi Arabian Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House on Friday, underscoring his guest's meteoric rise and increasingly pivotal role in strained US-Saudi ties.
White House spokesman Eric Schultz said Obama would meet the 30-year-old deputy crown prince, who has become the driving force behind economic reform and a more activist Saudi foreign policy.
King Salman's son, who is his country's defense minister, has met the very biggest of Washington's big hitters during a week-long visit.
He held talks with the CIA director, the secretaries of state, defense and treasury, as well as leading members of Congress.
The White House said Prince Mohammed's meeting with Obama will take place in the Oval Office -- a rare honor for a non-head of state, one not afforded to the Dalai Lama earlier in the week.
Little is certain about the inner workings of the House of Saud, but the prince's high public profile has led many to speculate that he could be the next on the throne, rather than designated Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef.
He is notionally number three in the hierarchy, but effectively he's number one," said Simon Henderson of the Washington Institute, a think tank focused on the Middle East.
"The King prefers his son and wants his son to be king," said Henderson.
For the White House, Mohammed bin Salman is a relative unknown, while Mohammed bin Nayef -- as interior minister -- has been the go-to royal on counterterrorism for years.
Prince Mohammed "wants to be known on the US side," said Gregory Gause, head of the international affairs department at Texas A&M University's Bush School of Government and Public Service. "It's an effort by him to be recognized."

That hat looks handy. He’s got a cloth for a picnic table and a couple of bungees to hold it down on a windy day.
I can only imagine how hard he had to keep from laughing at the retarded chimpanzee that was elected twice to lead the nation he’s visiting.
*thinks* “How does this infidel not choke on a watermelon seed every morning? And is that his wife?! By Allah, my GOAT back home is prettier and smells better!”
