Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto asked US President Donald Trump on Monday if he could meet with Trump's son Eric, an executive vice president of the Trump Organization, according to comments by the leaders picked up by a microphone after Trump had addressed a Gaza-focused summit in Egypt.
Trum and Prabowo, who were also seen on video footage, appeared to be unaware that a live microphone was recording their conversation. The two spoke in the Egyptian resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh after Trump delivered remarks to a group of world leaders gathered for the summit, which followed the announcement of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.
Corruption in plain sight!

The White House and the Indonesian Embassy in Washington yet to comment on the exchange. It was not clear in the audio whether the two were referencing the Trump Organization or any business deals involving the president or his family.
"Can I meet Eric?"
Speaking to Trump as the two men stood behind a podium with a microphone, Prabowo refers to a region that is "not safe, security-wise" and then asks Trump: "Can I meet Eric?"
Trump says, "I'll have Eric call. Should I do that? He's such a good boy. I'll have Eric call." Prabowo then says, "We'll look for a better place," and Trump says again: "I'll have Eric call you."
