‘Gift, Free of charge’: Donald Trump broke silence on Katri Jet Deal

Donald Trump has defended the plan to accept a luxury jet from the Katri royal family for use as Air Force, described it as “gift, free”. In his first public response to the controversy, the US President on Sunday took the truth social, accusing Democrats of being angry at a transparent and cost-saving system.“So the fact that the Defense Department a gift in a 747 aircraft to replace the 40 -year -old Air Force to the Department of Defense, in a very public and transparent transactions, temporarily, temporarily disturbs the crooked democrats, which they insist that we insist, the top dollar for the aircraft.For the first time in the weekend with ABC News and New York Times, it is revealed that the Qatari government is talking about transferring Boeing 747-8 with Pentagon, which can be temporarily used as Air Force. According to reports, the plan jet is to hand over the President’s President Library at the end of his tenure in January 2029, which continued the use of post -residency.While Qatari officials have denied that the aircraft is an individual gift for Trump, instead describing a potential “government-from government” as a transfer, the deal has inspired the wave of legal and moral investigation. Critics argue that it violates the Eloluments section of the US Constitution, which prevents officials from accepting gifts from foreign states without the approval of the Congress.Ethics expert Kathleen Clarke stated that the system was “derogatory”, accusing Trump of using federal power to enrich himself. Democrats have been vocal in their opposition, Senator Chris Murphy has said the move “wildly illegal” and representative Kelly Morrison labeled “corruption in plain vision”. Even Trump Ella Laura Lumor expressed concern, warning that a country with groups such as Hamas and Hizbullah would stain the administration, accepting such a gift from Qatar.However, the White House has allegedly prepared a legal defense, saying that the gift is not unconstitutional because the jet will be accepted by the Pentagon and then transferred to a foundation, never individually for trump. The administration says that there is no exchange of favor, and hence there is no bribe in it.Trump is expected to announce the arrangement during his visit to the Middle East this week, including stops in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and UAE. Jet, allegedly worth about $ 400 million, is similar to a trump tour at Palm Beach International Airport in February. Although more than a decade older, it will be prepared with safe communication and other upgrades before entering the service.
