Meta co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg visited the White House on Thursday, reports AP.

Meta spokesperson Andy Stone posted on X that Zuckerberg was at the White House “to discuss how Meta can help the administration defend and advance American tech leadership abroad.”

The Facebook co-creator has recently sought to ingratiate himself with Trump.

Last month, his company paid $25 million to settle a lawsuit by Trump that said his social media accounts were unfairly suspended after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol. Zuckerberg also attended Trump’s swearing-in and co-hosted an inaugural reception.

Meta is making multi-billion dollar investments in the development of artificial intelligence and Zuckerberg has said his company is in a place to have a productive relationship with the US government.
