Kushner's nomination: Trump brings convicted entrepreneurs to Paris!

Frankreich - The former US President Donald Trump nominated Charles Kushner, the father of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, as the new US ambassador in France. Trump praised Kushner on his platform Truth Social as "incredible head of corporate, philanthropist and dealmaker", who is intended to strengthen the existing gang between the USA and France, which he described as "our oldest and solid allies". The nomination comes at a time when Charles Kushner has an extremely controversial past: he was convicted of tax evasion in 2004 and spent almost two years in prison before Trump pardoned him shortly before the end of his first term, so that his criminal record was deleted. This was reported by the Krone .

Jared Kushner, who acted as a close consultant during Trump's presidency and played a central role in the Middle East in the cabinet, has now turned his back on politics. The close connection between Donald Trump and Charles Kushner raises questions about how the role of family in current politics is still used strategically. According to Zeit it is expected that Charles Kushner not only promotes diplomatic relationships, but also represents the interests of the USA in France. Such appointments that are characterized by family ties are the focus of the public and could have an impact on the political dynamics between the two nations.
