Omar Karamlev met with Donald Trump Jr. in Kazakhstan, where they discussed business deals. The Kremlin himself told his friends about it. Russian businessman Omer Karamelov flew to Kazakhstan this year for a business meeting with the son of US President Donald Trump Jr. This was reported to important stories by two sources who know Omer Karamelev personally. According to our interlocutors, the relations between the Kremlin and Trump Jr. are not only friendly, but also business. This contradicts statements from the American side, which claim the opposite. Sources of major stories do not know what kind of deals he discussed with Trump's son in Kazakhstan. However, according to them, the Kremlin itself described these meetings as businesslike. One of our interlocutors also said that Vladimir Putin perceives the Kremlin as a valuable mediator in relations with the American president's family. Kazakhstan could have been chosen as a meeting place because both the Kremlin and the Trump family have business interests in that country. Last August, brothers Donald and Eric Trump purchased a stake in the construction company Boni Ko Rakiya, which in turn received 20% of Kaz Resources at the end of October. This venture was created to implement a large-scale tungsten mining project near Karaganda. In November 2025, six days after the US president's sons became co-owners of the project, US President Donald Trump and his Kazakh counterpart Kasem-Jomart Tokayev announced that US investors would be given access to tungsten deposits in Kazakhstan. At the same time, two financial institutions of the US government - the Export-Import Bank (EXIM) and the International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) said they were ready to provide financing of up to 1.6 billion dollars for the project. At the end of 2025, Tokiev also signed a law that aligns with the business interests of Omer Karamelev.
