Jared Kushner travels to Iraq with joint chiefs of staff

  • 5 years ago
President Trump's senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner is visiting Iraq with the chairman of Joints Chiefs of Staff Joseph Dunford. While details of the trip are not yet known, Kushner reportedly wanted to witness the situation in Iraq and back the Iraqi government. A senior administration official declined to share Kushner's itinerary in Iraq, marking his first visit to the country as part of the new administration. Kushner, who has no previous government or diplomat experience, is also expected to take on a major role in meetings later this week between Trump and China's President Xi Jinping.
