Michael Boulos, son-in-law of US President Donald Trump, arrived in Kerala on Saturday as a state guest. He met Chief Minister VD Satheesan and is likely to visit the Saint Francis Church and Jewish Synagogue in Kochi. He may also take a houseboat trip in Alappuzha, weather permitting. US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor and a senior Consulate official from Chennai are accompanying him. Boulos is expected to leave the state later today.
The visit of Michael Boulos, Donald Trump's son-in-law, to Kerala as a state guest has sparked predictable narratives. Some suggest this signals a special relationship between the state and a potential future US administration, while others dismiss it as routine diplomatic courtesy. The truth lies somewhere in between. It is standard practice for states to host relatives of foreign leaders, but Kerala extending state-guest status to a private individual is unusual. Whether this translates into tangible investment or merely remains a photo opportunity will be revealed in the coming months, not in the breathless coverage of his itinerary.
