George Nader served as an envoy to Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman and Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Crown Prince of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

Nader worked with the Trump campaign and simultaneously with the Clinton campaign as the Arab Gulf states wanted to influence both candidates.

Ahmad Hassan Mohammad al-Assiri is a consultant and confidence of the crown prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman.
