U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping

Albania is among the long list countries that have spent millions of dollars on Donald Trump's properties and hotels during his time as U.S. president.

According to a report released by Democrats in Congress, Saudi Arabia and China are among 20 countries that have spent at least 7.8 million euros ($7.8 million) on properties owned by Donald Trump.

China's government and state entities are the biggest spenders at the former president's properties, the report said, paying $5.5 million to Trump-owned facilities in New York, Washington and Las Vegas. Saudi Arabia and its royal family spent more than $600,000.

The findings are the culmination of a multiyear investigation by House democrats into whether Trump has personally benefited from his time in public office. The former president is currently a clear front-runner in the Republican presidential race.

The 156-page report found that alongside China and Saudi Arabia, entities linked to the states of Congo, Malaysia, Albania and Kosovo also spent money on Trump's hotels and apartments. The investigation relies on documents obtained by Mazars, Trump's former accounting firm.

Qatar spent more than $460,000 and Kuwait more than $300,000, the report says.

Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House of Representatives oversight committee and house manager during Trump's second impeachment trial, said the figures were only a "fraction" of current spending by foreign entities at the former president's properties and covered only two of the four years of his presidency and a small number of his businesses.

"By elevating his personal financial interests and policy priorities of corrupt foreign powers over the American public interest, former President Trump violated both the clear orders of the Constitution and the careful precedent set and adhered to by every previous president," Raskin wrote.
