Summary

This resolution expresses the Senate's condemnation of President Trump's decision to permit the export of advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates.

The resolution references a $500 million investment agreement involving Emirati officials and Trump family entities that was signed before Trump's inauguration, followed by meetings between Emirati officials and Trump administration members who pushed for AI chip access. The resolution calls for the reversal of the decision to allow the export of advanced AI chips to the United Arab Emirates.

RESOLUTION

Condemning and calling for the reversal of President Donald Trump’s decision to allow the export of advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates, despite significant risks to national security and just months after the United Arab Emirates signed a secret $500,000,000 deal to buy close to a majority stake in the Trump family crypto company World Liberty Financial.

Whereas 4 days before the inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States in 2025, officials representing Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the top security official of the United Arab Emirates, who is often referred to as the “spy sheikh”, reportedly signed a $500,000,000 deal to purchase 49 percent of the Trump family’s crypto company World Liberty Financial; Whereas, as part of an initial $250,000,000 installment, the Tahnoon-backed company making the purchase reportedly directed a payment of $187,000,000 to Trump family entities; Whereas another $31,000,000 was reportedly directed to flow to entities connected to the family of Steve Witkoff, who was a co-founder of World Liberty Financial and who serves as President Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East; Whereas, after the $500,000,000 deal was signed, Tahnoon repeatedly met with President Trump, Mr. Witkoff, and other officials in the Trump administration while pushing for access to advanced artificial intelligence chips; Whereas, after the $500,000,000 deal was signed, the Trump administration approved the sale of advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates, despite longstanding concerns about the country’s ties to the People’s Republic of China and the risk that advanced chips would be diverted there and jeopardize the national security of the United States; Whereas the People’s Republic of China is seeking advanced artificial intelligence chips from the United States to enhance the lethality of its military and to supplant the United States as the global leader in technology; and Whereas the risks to national security posed by President Trump’s decisions and the serious corruption underlying those decisions must be condemned and addressed immediately: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the Senate condemns President Donald Trump’s decision to allow the sale of advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates and calls for the reversal of that decision. <all>
