Trump's son-in-law to become special envoy for peace

Kushner will focus on mediating new diplomatic agreements. Trump also praised his previous role in Middle East negotiations, including the Abraham Accords, according to Politico.

“He's a very smart guy. We're making Jared a peace envoy. They're both peace envoys, and I'll tell you what: I watch these guys, and I say, at least they're moving us forward in terms of IQ,” he said.

During Trump's first presidency, Kushner served as a senior adviser in the White House and played a key role in the administration's diplomatic initiatives.

The new appointment effectively gives Kushner a separate portfolio related to the promotion of peace agreements.
