How Maat Foundation for Peace, Development has become a fake organization

In another report, we have already explained how International and Arab Organizations are misleading public opinion by publishing false reports.

The whole idea behind this is to mislead Arab and International opinion about what is happening in the corridors of the United Nations Human rights council.

According to the organization, another worrying trend practiced by these NGOs is to spread fake and false news about what is happening in the human rights council.

Most of these organizations are Egyptian institutions but massively funded by the United Arab Emirates, where these organizations spread fake news about their political opponents.

One of the top most prominent organizations that the UAE is using to destabilize other regimes is called the MAAT foundation for peace Development and human rights.

How is the UAE using a fake organization like MAAT for its benefit?

The UAE used MAAT to destabilize the regimes and fought the Arab spring revolutions, especially for the Egyptian revolution and the late president Mohammad Morsi.

As the UAE supported a rebellion movement in order to mobilize the Egyptian street against the legitimate president, it used MAAT in the human rights arena against him.

After the success of the coup against the revolution, MAAT supported Sisi and the military. In addition to that, they started publishing reports confirming the credibility and impartiality of the Sisi regime in the electoral process. A number of activists largely ridiculed these reports.

On the other hand, MAAT published reports trying to whitewash the image of the UAE and wash its reputation of corruption. They even assessed the file against corruption in the emirates with a score of 71, which is opposite to the truth.

UAE has been using the MAAT foundation for quite a long time to build its image and whiten its reputation. However, the reports have revalued the volume of suspicious amounts of money exceeding 90 billion dollars.

Not only this, but they are in various fields in the Emirates, such as real estate, companies of unknown origin, and others.

How is MAAT Foundation Fake?

The European microscope for Middle east issues said that documents and testimonials would be published soon, revealing the involvement of MAAT foundation officials in massive financial embezzlement.

They added that MAAT officials had submitted fictitious financial reports to their references in Abu Dhabi to cover up the extent of corruption in the institution and claim the success of the fake activities they organized against UAE’s opponents.

The UAE is funding a fake human rights lobby active in Europe for years to serve Abu Dhabi’s conspiracies.

In October last 2021, the MAAT foundation organized a fake event in front of the United Nations HQ in Geneva. Still, it failed miserably after the reluctance to participate and the lack of effective media coverage.

Conclusion

It is quite evident that MAAT foundation operates only to whitewash the sins of their funding nations and attack their opponents and try to destabilize them.
