The richest Asian Mukesh Ambani is flying to Doha to meet US President Donald Trump, his second meeting since Trump returned to presidency in January this year.
According to PTI, Ambani will attend a state dinner that the Emir of Qatar is hosting for Trump at the Lusail Palace in Doha on Wednesday, sources with direct knowledge of the matter said.
Reliance Industries Ltd, the firm that Ambani heads, did not reply to an email sent for comments.
While business discussions are off the table, his oil-to-retail conglomerate has businesses closely tied to decisions of the US president.
Reliance had last year secured waivers from the US to resume importing crude oil from Venezuela. It however had to stop that in March following Trump authorising a 25 per cent tariff on countries buying the South American country’s oil.
Reliance also sells fuels like gasoline made from crude oil bought from countries such as Russia into the American market.
Also, US tech giants such as Google and Meta have taken an equity stake in Ambani’s digital venture.
