Donald Trump has named his daughter Tiffany’s father-in-law, Massad Boulos, as an adviser on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs.

The Lebanese American businessman is the second in-law to be offered a position in the incoming administration, after Trump picked Charles Kushner, his daughter Ivanka’s father-in-law, to serve as ambassador to France.

Mr Boulos played a key unofficial role in the Trump campaign, helping him court Arab American and Muslim voters as many of them grew frustrated with the Biden administration over the Israel-Gaza war.

Announcing the appointment on social media, Trump said Mr Boulos was “instrumental in building tremendous new coalitions with the Arab American community”.
