Kochi: US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Michael Boulos arrived in Kochi for a private visit on Saturday, official sources said. Boulos, who is married to Trump’s daughter Tiffany Trump, was accompanied by US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor, they said.

According to police sources, Boulos may visit tourist destinations in Kochi and neighbouring Alappuzha during his stay, though details of his itinerary have not been confirmed.

Some media reports said Kerala Chief Minister V D Satheesan held discussions with Boulos but the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) denied the reports. They confirmed that CM Satheesan held talks with the US ambassador here. “It was an official meeting. Any other report in this regard was wrong,” a government source said.

When contacted, a US Embassy spokesperson said, “Michael Boulos has been friends with Ambassador Gor for nearly a decade. He is visiting India for the second time this year to see his friend. He is here in his personal capacity, not on an official visit.”
