A question that carries a sensitive nature and requires precise clarification. There is no documented or public evidence to prove that former U.S. President Donald Trump is "granted sums by Arab rulers" officially or legally. However, some points can be clarified to understand the background that may have prompted some to raise this question:
1. Strategic relations
- The United States, under Trump, established close relations with a number of Arab countries, especially in the Gulf, such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE. These relations included:
- Arms deals worth billions of dollars.
- Mutual political support on regional issues (such as Iran or normalization with Israel).
Economic partnerships.
2. Mutual interests, not "gifts"
What is sometimes described as "money granted" is actually:
- Investments from Arab sovereign funds in American companies or in projects linked to the Trump family after leaving the presidency.
- Business or military deals in exchange, not donations or grants.
3. Projects after the presidency
After leaving office, Trump and his close associates entered into business projects with investors from several countries, including Arab investors. These deals may be interpreted as "political rewards" by some observers, but they are often within the law, unless proven otherwise by official investigations.
4. Accusations and suspicions
Some Western media circulated reports about the possibility of an "economic favor" or "conflict of interest" in Trump's relationship with some Arab countries, but no direct financial corruption has been proven in court or by an independent investigative body so far.
✍️ The question reflects a legitimate concern about the influence of money on politics, but it needs to distinguish between reality and rumors. Relations between countries are often built on strategic and commercial interests, and there is no official evidence of "sums granted" to Trump as gifts.
