Abe: Trump ‘a leader I can have great confidence in’

Meeting0 Comments

Trtrump-abeump and Japanese PM Abe meet at Trump Tower. Abe:

As an outcome of today’s discussion I am convinced Mr. Trump is a leader with whom I can have great confidence in…I conveyed my basic views on various issues to Mr. Trump but with regard to more of the specifics or details, because of the fact that Mr. Trump has not assumed the office as the president of the United States or today’s discussion was an unofficial discussion, I’d like to refrain from touching on details.

Trump:

It was a pleasure to have Prime Minister Shinzo Abe stop by my home and begin a great friendship.
