Two Swiss lawmakers have asked prosecutors to investigate whether generous gifts given to President Donald Trump by Swiss business leaders violated anti‑bribery laws .
The gifts, including a gold bar and a Rolex table clock, were handed over during a White House meeting that came about a week before the Trump administration cut tariffs on Swiss goods.
Trump has not been accused of wrongdoing, and a source close to the Swiss delegation that visited the Oval Office told Newsweek that the gifts were given to the presidential library, which is permitted under U.S. ethics rules.
Newsweek contacted the White House and the companies of the Swiss executives who took part in the meeting via email on Friday.
Representatives for Rolex and Partners Group declined to comment.
