Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto expressed his desire to meet Trump’s son Eric while talking to US President Donald Trump yesterday. Subianto’s desire went viral on social media, sparking many discussions. Let us tell you that Eric is not an official or in any position of power in the Trump government, he is only the executive vice president of the Trump Organization.
Subianto met Trump after addressing the Gaza-focused summit in Egypt. In which Subianto’s desire to meet Trump’s son was recorded on the microphone. He was unaware of the live microphone being used in the video footage, and this conversation was recorded.
Subianto shook hands with Trump and said that the region is not safe in terms of security. Can I meet Eric? To which Trump replied, “I’ll give Eric your message. Eric is actually a very good boy. I’ll tell him about you.” Later, Prabowo said, “We’ll find a better place.” Trump replied again, “I’ll tell Eric to call you.” Later, Prabowo asked, “Eric or Donald Jr.”
Subianto’s desire has been criticized on social media. Eric Trump and his brother Donald Trump Jr. both work as executive vice presidents at the Trump Organization. They manage Trump’s real estate, hospitality, and blockchain-based ventures. They run a golf club in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia. They also manage resorts and golf clubs in Bali. Why would Subianto, as the president of Indonesia, want to meet Trump’s son? Trump is already facing criticism for taking advantage of his time in government to benefit his business.
