Former president Trump has nominated Charles Kushner, the father of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, to serve as the U.S. ambassador to France. This decision comes after Kushner was pardoned by Trump in a recent past, leading to significant controversy surrounding his nomination. Critics question the appropriateness of appointing a pardoned felon to such a key diplomatic role, while supporters describe Kushner as a strong advocate for U.S. interests internationally. The nomination is expected to ignite discussions about nepotism and the implications of family ties in political appointments.
