- Jared Kushner's firm held major stake in "Phoenix".
- Phoenix invests in businesses tied to Israel's military campaign.
- Kushner acted as volunteer envoy, avoiding disclosure.
- CNN investigation revealed the potential conflict of interest.
A comprehensive investigation by CNN has revealed that Jared Kushner, former Middle East envoy and son-in-law of Donald Trump, held a significant stake in "Phoenix" through his private investment firm. This company, in turn, invests in businesses connected to Israel's military campaign. According to the report, Kushner avoided a deeper examination of this potential conflict of interest by operating as a volunteer envoy rather than an official government appointee. Had he been an official, he would have been required to disclose his financial assets.
The investigation alleges that Kushner thus created an "unprecedented dual role" within the Trump administration. The report highlights that Kushner's firm had the largest holding in Phoenix, which is involved in investments related to the ongoing conflict.
