Jared Kushner, son-in-law of US President Donald Trump, has been accused of secret financial dealings with top leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Israel. The claim was made in a report by Vanity Fair. The report says Dutch intelligence learned of the dealings by monitoring activity on Kushner’s iPhone during Trump’s first term.

It is alleged that the dealings were made in return for advancing these countries’ interests through Trump.

According to the report, large sums were deposited in a UAE-linked bank account on which Kushner was a signatory. The report also alleges that at least $2 billion was deposited into two accounts linked to Kushner at the initiative of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati leaders. It claims that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu advised Kushner on the alleged dealings.

Kushner has rejected the allegations as “completely false and baseless”. In a post on the social media platform X, he said the report offered no verifiable evidence such as bank statements, transfer records or dates of transactions. His lawyer, Chad Mizelle, also called the allegations “completely false”. Asked whether they would sue, he said: “All options are on the table.”
