Spicer: Jared Kushner Is Going to Iraq to Express Our Commitment to the Gov’t of Iraq

EXCERPT:

SPICER: "It’s ironically the first trip for both Mr. Kushner and Mr. Bossert. They’re going to receive briefings and updates with respect to what’s going on on the ground, our military involvement there and our efforts to defeat ISIS. Jared’s going to specifically express the commitment of U.S., of the United States to the government of Iraq, meet with U.S. personnel engaged in the campaign. And Mr. Bossert will participate in meetings and briefings to reinforce the strong U.S./Iraqi partnership to defeat ISIS. But it’s not like this is a one-shot deal. In the course of conversation, in extensive meetings, that invitation was extended and they took it on.”
