U.S. president's son Donald Trump Jr arrives in India

Xinhua,February 20, 2018 Adjust font size:

NEW DELHI, Feb. 20 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump's son Donald Trump Jr arrived here Tuesday on a week-long visit to India.

Apart from attending the Global Business Summit in the Indian capital, Trump Jr is scheduled to visit four Indian cities to cover the sprawling Trump portfolio. In fact, he will launch two real estate projects -- one in Gurgaon near Delhi and the other in the eastern city of Kolkata.

During his trip, Trump Jr will also meet Indian investors and business leaders in the cities of Kolkata, Mumbai, Pune and Gurgaon.

Sources, however, said that the Indian government is treating Trump Jr's trip to India as a "private visit". "This is a private visit of the U.S. President's son. So, we are treating it accordingly," sources said.

Commenting on his upcoming visit, Trump Jr said: "India is such an incredible country and our brand has enjoyed tremendous success in the region for many years."

"This trip is a celebration of all we have achieved, including the launch of the Trump developments in Kolkata and Delhi which have been underway for many months," he said in the statement issued earlier this month. Enditem
