Trump told reporters: “I have a very good relationship with him. I like him a lot. But what they did was wrong. He was very polite and apologised for the false advertisement. We had a great dinner with other countries. Personally, I think our relationship is strong, and I appreciate that he apologised.”
The U.S. president also spoke positively about his recent meeting with China, describing the talks as “incredible” and “long-lasting.” “Our farmers are seeing numbers they’ve never seen before, and they are very happy. I suggest they go out and buy larger tractors and more land,” Trump said.
