Arab leaders gave Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice jewelry worth more than a quarter of a million dollars last year, including $316,000 in gem-encrusted baubles from the kings of Jordan and Saudi Arabia alone, making her one of top recipients among U.S. officials of gifts from foreign heads of state and government and their aides in 2007. The gifts have been turned over to the General Services Administration and government archives in accordance with federal law, which bars officials from accepting personal presents in most circumstances.
