The President of the United States Donald Trump doubled when receiving and using the gift of Qatar Boeing Jet as Air Force One. In a post on the social media, he called this “reward” and “great savings” and added that it would be foolish to refuse.
Donald Trump came under great critism for suggesting that he would receive an expensive gift of Boeing 747-8 from the government of Qatar and said he would use it as an air force.
What did Donald Trump said? “Just a fool …”
“The Boeing 747 is dedicated to the Air Force/Ministry of Defense of the United States, not for me! It is a gift from the nation, Qatar, that we have successfully defended for many years (sic),” wrote Donald Trump on Truth Social.
He added: “Our government will use it as a temporary air force, until our new Boeings, which are very late in delivery, arrive. Why would our army, and therefore our taxpayers, were forced to pay hundreds of millions of dollars if they could get it free of charge from a country that wants to reward us well for work.”
“These great savings will be spent instead of America to become great again! Just a fool would not receive this gift on behalf of our country. Thank you for your attention!” (sic), ended.
What is controversy?
Donald Trump is facing a pushback for an agreement under which Qatar would offer the luxury of the Boeing 747-8 Jumbo Jet for use as Air Force One at the time Boeing takes the newer verse of the presidential aircraft.
Critics on both sides raised an alarm on the security and technical issues related to the US chief using an aircraft from a foreign government; and the money value of the gift.
Why Donald Trump wants a new air force?
Donald Trump was increasingly frustrated by boeing over the delay in providing the new Air Force One because the company faces a number of technical problems. He also expressed disappointment with the current craft, noted the report BB.
During his first term of office in 2016, he ordered the Pentagon to lay $ 3.9 billion to a few 747-8-8-orte by the presidential aircraft. Despite the delay Boeing says he can get into operation by 2027, before the end of the second presidential period Donald Trump added it.
Built in 2012, Katari is equipped with luxury accessories and Donald Trump himself traveled with a nozzle a few weeks ago when he stopped at West Palm Beach.
