Book Alleges Kushner Accessed Gulf-Linked Bank Account; He Denies Claims

Book Alleges Kushner Accessed Gulf-Linked Bank Account; He Denies ClaimsPreviousNext

A forthcoming book by Matthew Cole alleges that during Donald Trump's first term, Dutch intelligence hacked Jared Kushner's phone and uncovered his access to a UAE-linked bank account funded by Saudi and Emirati sources with nearly $750 million. Kushner was reportedly a signatory but not the owner of the account, which was linked to a UAE government charity. The funds allegedly supported covert operations and foreign policy efforts. Kushner has strongly denied these claims, calling them fabrications and falsehoods.
