US President Donald Trump will soon receive an extremely luxurious Boeing 747-8 jet from the Emir of Qatar. According to sources at the White House reported by ABC News, this gift could be recorded as the most expensive gift ever given by a foreign head of state in US history.
The Emir of Qatar is scheduled to officially present this "flying palace" to Trump during the US president's visit to Qatar this week. The Boeing 747-8, which has been in service for 13 years, will be refurbished to meet high standards of comfort and safety and will be transferred to the US Air Force's inventory.
Reports about the luxurious interior of the aircraft have previously surfaced, with experts estimating its value at a minimum of 400 million dollars. In terms of luxury and comfort, this aircraft is being compared to a true "flying palace." The Boeing 747-8 is equipped with all amenities, including a fully furnished bedroom, special relaxation areas, and modern multimedia systems.
Last February, Donald Trump personally inspected this aircraft at West Palm Beach airport and was greatly impressed by its interior. The US president will use this expensive gift as Air Force One until the end of his presidential term. After his term ends, the ownership rights of the aircraft will be transferred to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation.
It is worth noting that this expensive gift has been thoroughly analyzed by the White House and the US Department of Justice, and it has been confirmed that there are no legal issues regarding its acceptance. Experts have confirmed that this action does not violate anti-corruption legislation or the restrictions on accepting gifts from foreign states as stipulated in the US Constitution.
This event is expected to spark significant discussions in the global media. Such a large and valuable gift from Qatar could serve to further strengthen the relationship between the two countries.
