JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump admitted that he had a "very good" relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Trump made the statement in his opening speech at the first meeting of the Board of Peace (BoP) in Washington on Thursday, February 19.
Initially, Trump joked and praised the US Special Envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, who was good at communicating about the affairs of many countries including Ukraine-Russia to get praise from Xi Jinping.
Trump then said that in addition to his subordinates' actions, he also had good relations with Putin and Xi Jinping.
"I'm going to China, it's going to be something that was never thought of before," Trump said in a live broadcast on YouTube The White House.
"We have to put on the biggest show ever in Chinese history," he continued.
Trump said he had a very warm reception during his last meeting with Xi.
This praise was delivered even though Russia and China, which are members of the UN Security Council, have so far been reluctant to join Trump's Board of Peace.
In his opening speech to the first meeting of the Board of Peace, Trump did praise the country or its representatives who attended the meeting.
He called several heads of state or their representatives who sat in the seats of member countries of the Board of Peace while throwing a number of compliments and jokes to them.
