מאחורי החיוך של טראמפ: העסקה שמעוררת שאלות בוושינגטון

הערכה

A new report alleges a significant financial conflict of interest, claiming that the sons of President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick stand to profit from a 1.6 billion dollar tungsten mining deal in Kazakhstan. Tungsten is a critical metal used in missile and aircraft production, giving the arrangement potential national security implications. The White House defends the deal by stating only the American people's interests are paramount. The question left hanging is whether the involvement of family members from two powerful administration figures shifts that calculus in ways that Washington is only beginning to examine.
