'Delinquents' one day, 'terrific relationship' the next: Donald Trump has undergone a remarkable transformation from bashing the world's leaders at home to schmoozing happily like someone at a school reunion.
US President Donald Trump does a fist bump with Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a trilateral meeting on the first day of the G20 summit on June 28 2019 in Osaka, Japan."Delinquents" one day,"terrific relationship" the next: Donald Trump has undergone a remarkable transformation from bashing the world's leaders at home to schmoozing happily like someone at a school reunion.
As leaders gathered for a group photo, Trump chatted warmly with Russian President Vladimir Putin, patting him gently on the back as they parted ways. And journalists hoping for fireworks in Trump's many bilateral meetings were also disappointed with the US president seemingly on very best behaviour at least for the public parts of his interactions.
Asked by a journalist whether he would warn Putin about influencing the presidential vote next year, he smiled and wagged his finger playfully at the Kremlin strongman, saying:"Don't meddle in the election, president, don't meddle." For his part, Bolsonaro told the US president:"I have been a great admirer of you for quite some time, even before your election."
