Subject: (no subject)

Summary

In this email, Sultan Bin Sulayem updates Jeffrey Epstein on the status of the project, reportedly stating: "Djibouti got food poising but ok now flying to dubai".

Contextual Importance

The specific grammar—treating "Djibouti" as the subject that "got food poisoning"—suggests a meaning beyond literal illness.

Revised Speculation: "Food Poisoning" as Code/Metonym

  1. The "Poisoned" Deal: Using "Djibouti" as a metonym for the port deal or the negotiation process. "Food poisoning" in this context could refer to a toxic development, a snag, or a "poison pill" in the negotiations with the Djiboutian government.
  2. Snag and Recovery: The phrase "but ok now" implies that the setback (whatever was "toxic" or "poisonous" to the deal) was successfully neutralized or resolved before the next phase of the trip.
  3. Operational Status: Sultan is treating the sovereign state/project as a living entity whose "health" (deal status) he is monitoring for Epstein.
  4. Transition to New York: This status update was sent just two days before Sultan facilitated the meeting between Epstein and the President of Djibouti at the Waldorf Astoria in New York. If the deal had been "poisoned" in the days prior, the New York meeting likely served as the definitive "recovery."
