Revealed: Trump family on a 'marathon' of lucrative foreign deal making — while no one notices

  • Following President Trump's swearing-in, his company has revealed several new development initiatives overseas in Qatar, UAE, India, and Vietnam, while not launching any projects within the United States.
  • These foreign projects followed a January 10, 2025 ethics agreement that permits new international deals but prohibits direct contracts with foreign governments.
  • Last Thursday, the Trump Organization entered into a $5.5 billion agreement to develop a golf club in Qatar, collaborating with Saudi-affiliated Dar Global and Qatari Diar, the government-owned investment firm.
  • Additional transactions include a $2 billion crypto investment involving the Trump family firm World Liberty Financial and Abu Dhabi’s MGX, using an embryonic stable coin called USD1.
  • These transactions, many overseen by Eric and Donald Trump Jr., coincide with President Trump's scheduled May 13-16 Middle East trip, highlighting ongoing international business activity managed within ethics limits.
