Jared Kushner in war-ravaged Iraq for official visit

 Mon Apr 3, 2017 2:11AM
Ivanka Trump (in shadow) and her husband, White House senior advisor Jared Kushner, arrive for a joint press conference in the White House

Jared Kushner, the son-in-law and top aide to US President Donald Trump, has traveled to Iraq for an official visit, a senior US official says.

Kushner was being accompanied by General Joe Dunford, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Trump administration officials said on Sunday.

Kushner’s objective was not clear but it seems the US military’s ongoing campaign against alleged Daesh (ISIL) positions in Iraq and Syria were high up on the agenda.

The Pentagon arranged the visit shortly after Trump mentioned it in a conversation with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

According to some reports, Kushner might also discuss Iraq’s reported business investment requests. Apparently, US Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross has been reviewing some of those requests over the past few days. 

A senior administration official told CBS News that Kushner was trying to get a better picture of the overall situation in Iraq and show his support for the Iraqi government.

Nevertheless, the trip bears special significance for Trump, since he has also tasked Kushner, who lacks political experience, with brokering a peace deal between Palestine and Israel.

“If you can’t produce in the Middle East, nobody can,” Trump told his son-in-law at an event days before inauguration.

Kushner is also one of the key Trump associates involved in the investigation into his alleged ties to the Russian government.

The White House confirmed last week that Kushner had volunteered to appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee and answer their questions in this regard.

Kushner is also expected to play an important role in this week’s meeting between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Florida.

Trump has indicated that the meeting would revolve around trade and the threat from North Korea.

IMHO this is HUGE news for the DV family;

#1 =  Jared Kushner - A fresh attempt at a Palestine - Jewish peace deal.

#2 = Wilbur Ross - Security of Commerce "reviewing investment requests" - BTW this guy know how to turn around failing businesses and make LOTs of $$$$$.

#3 = Gen Joe Dunford planning the final demise of ISIS in the Middle East.

$4 = POTUS Donald J Trump - This guy holds all the cards and also knows how to make LOTs of $$$$$.

Go RV ..........................

Jared Kushner travels to Iraq

NEW YORK — President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, is visiting Iraq with the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, an official said Sunday night.

Details about the trip to the Middle East with Gen. Joseph Dunford were not released. A senior administration official said Kushner wanted to see the situation in Iraq for himself and show support for the Iraqi government. The official wasn't authorized to speak about confidential meetings by name and demanded anonymity.

 

Kushner's West Wing portfolio is robust. He has been deeply involved with presidential staffing, recently launched a task force meant to modernize government using lessons drawn from the private sector, and has played the role of shadow diplomat, advising on relations with the Middle East, Canada and Mexico.

And though Kushner had no previous diplomatic or government experience, Trump also tasked him with trying to broker a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians.

"If you can't produce peace in the Middle East, nobody can," Trump told Kushner at a gala a few days before his inauguration.

Kushner was also the latest Trump associate to be swept up into the ongoing probe into contacts with Russian officials. The White House confirmed last week that he had volunteered to be interviewed by the Senate intelligence committee. North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr, the committee's chairman, said that Kushner would likely be under oath and would submit to a "private interview" about arranging meetings with the Russian ambassador and other officials.

Kushner is married to Trump's oldest daughter, Ivanka. He was expected to have a major role in meetings later this week between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping at Trump's winter retreat in Palm Beach, Florida.

 

By MICHAEL CROWLEY

The Iraq trip was first reported by The New York Times.

Kushner's trip began against a backdrop of an ongoing investigation into civilian deaths in an area of Mosul near the site of an air-strike by U.S.-led coalition forces last month.

His visit marked an early foray for the Trump administration into the situation in Iraq and came just two weeks after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said he was assured by the president the U.S. will accelerate its support for his country's struggle against the Islamic State group.

Al-Abadi met with Trump and Kushner in Washington last month and said he had the impression that the Trump administration would take a more aggressive approach, although he did not say what that might entail.

Defense Secretary Jim Mattis recently presented Trump with the outlines of a comprehensive approach to defeating IS and other extremist groups on a global scale, but specifics have yet to be worked out. Officials have indicated that the approach is unlikely to depart radically from the Obama administration's strategy, at least with regard to ongoing efforts in Iraq and Syria.

Iraq was part of the Trump administration's original travel ban but was removed from the revised version after a request from the Pentagon and the State Department highlighting Iraq's key role in fighting the Islamic State. The second travel ban, which restrictions immigration from six Muslim-majority countries, has been halted by a federal court. The U.S. Justice Department has announced an appeal.

Jared Kushner, the son-in-law and top aide to US President Donald Trump, is in Iraq on an official visit, a senior administration official said on Sunday.

Kushner is travelling in the Middle East with the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Joseph Dunford.

Other details about the trip are not being released. The official isn't authorised to speak about confidential meetings by name and demanded anonymity.

The fight against ISIL would likely top the agenda, AFP news agency reported.

The US is leading an international coalition fighting the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS), launching air strikes to assist Iraqi forces on the ground. 

Since last month, the forces have been engaged in a grinding battle for west Mosul, sending more than 200,000 civilians fleeing for safety.

Trump's son-in-law to be questioned over Russia ties

Kushner, like his father-in-law, has no previous experience in government but has become one of the most powerful men in Washington.

Valued by Trump for his discretion and loyalty, the baby-faced 36-year-old is officially a White House senior adviser with far-reaching influence over domestic and foreign policy.

Kushner has been deeply involved with presidential staffing and has played the role of shadow diplomat, advising on relations with the Middle East, Canada and Mexico.

Last week he launched a task force meant to modernise government, using lessons drawn from the private sector.

Kushner's wife Ivanka, the 35-year-old first daughter, also plays a key role in advising the president. She officially became assistant to the president last week, after being a regular presence in the White House since Trump's election.
