Jared Kushner, senior adviser to President Donald Trump, will travel to Saudi Arabia and Qatar this week in a bid to ease tensions in the region, including the ongoing rift between Qatar and its neighbors.
Kushner, who’s also Trump’s 39-year-old son-in-law, will first go to Neom, Saudi Arabia, according to two people familiar with the matter.
His visit comes a few weeks after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met there with U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo and, according to Israeli media, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
