The meeting brings together two figures with extensive connections across the Muslim world. Rabbi Chitrik, who serves as Chief Rabbi of Turkey, has been active for years in strengthening Jewish life and maintaining relationships across the region.

Boulos, a Lebanese-born businessman and political figure, was appointed by President Trump to serve as his senior advisor on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs. He later took on an additional role as Senior Advisor for Africa, where he has been involved in U.S. diplomatic efforts on the continent.

Boulos also has a notable connection to the Trump family: his son, Michael Boulos, is married to President Trump’s daughter Tiffany Trump.

The meeting took place in Washington. Details of the discussion were not publicly released.
