In 2018, President Trump’s eldest son Donald Trump Jr. traveled to Serbia on the sidelines of a campaign event to meet with a senior member of the country’s ruling party. This trip is notable because, in 2016, Serbia’s strongman President Aleksandar Vucic backed President Trump’s candidacy. The meeting in 2018 also raised eyebrows since, according to The New York Times, special counsel Robert Mueller is examining connections between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign in Eastern Europe. However, according to Donald Trump Jr.’s lawyer, the Trump Organization has had a business relationship with the Serbian government for over a decade. The article offers no evidence that the relationship between Trump Jr. and the president’s ruling party contact, Nikola Petrovic, was related to that campaign.
