'This is diplomacy in the dark, by someone who no security agency thinks should have a security clearance, because he's got financial issues,' says Vicky Ward, author of 'Kushner Inc.,' on Jared Kushner's latest mystery mission to Saudi Arabia.
Washington President Donald Trump's senior adviser Jared Kushner met with Saudi Arabia's crown prince Tuesday in their first face-to-face encounter since the October 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who sources have told CNN the CIA assesses with high confidence ordered Khashoggi's murder, met Kushner along with his father King Salman to discuss US-Saudi cooperation, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and economic investment in the region according to a readout of the meeting released by the White House.

Kushner's stops include the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
