Trump hails Air Force One 'gift' after Qatari luxury jet reports | AFP #shorts

简介：

Donald Trump has defended plans to receive a new Air Force One as a gift, after reports he will accept a luxury Boeing jet from Qatar despite strict rules on presents for US presidents. Calling the plane a "flying palace," ABC News, which first reported the story, said the Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet gifted by the Qatari royal family would possibly be the most expensive gift ever received by the American government. The controversy around the jet -- and Trump's boast that it was coming "free of charge" -- builds on questions the US leader is facing over potential conflicts of interest with his family businesses and use of public office.
