“$1,400,000,000,000 from The United Arab Emirates”

MISLEADING
What the record shows
UAE committed to a 10-year, $1.4 trillion investment framework announced March 2025; this is a pledge over a decade, not funds already secured or received.

The $1.4 trillion is a 10-year investment framework announced in March 2025, not completed investments. Presenting it as already 'secured' misrepresents a future commitment as a current achievement.
