Trump, Colombia’s Petro make amends at White House

President Donald Trump and Colombian President Gustavo Petro appeared to patch things up Tuesday after having spent the past year trading threats and insults.

Axar.az informs, citing NBC news, What started as a meeting between frequent foes ended with Petro walking out of the Oval Office with a MAGA hat, altered with a pen to say "Make Americas Great Again."

The bilateral meeting ended in an unexpectedly positive tone, with both leaders saying afterward that it went smoothly. Ahead of the meeting, former Colombian and U.S. officials had expressed apprehension, citing both Trump’s and Petro’s unpredictable and fiery tempers.

"We got along very well," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Tuesday afternoon. "He and I weren't exactly the best of friends, but I wasn't insulted, because I'd never met him. I didn't know him at all. And we got along very well."
