Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto extended his congratulations to Donald Trump following his election victory during a phone call after arriving in Washington for an official visit. This visit includes a scheduled meeting with President Joe Biden on Tuesday. Prabowo, who has expressed his intention to adopt a non-aligned foreign policy, shared a video of his conversation with Trump, which took place after his arrival from China, where he had met with President Xi Jinping on his first international trip since taking office last month.

In the video posted on his social media, Prabowo stated, “Wherever you are, I’m willing to fly to congratulate you personally, sir.”

Trump responded, “We’ll do that, anytime you want.”

Prabowo’s office confirmed that the call took place on Monday after his arrival in Washington but did not provide information on whether a face-to-face meeting with Trump is planned.

Trump characterized his election victory as remarkable, claiming it provided him with a significant mandate. “We had tremendous success. The most successful in over 100 years, they say,” he remarked.

Trump acknowledged the Indonesian President as “very respected” and commended his proficiency in English. In response, Prabowo, a former special forces commander, remarked, “All my training is American, sir.”

Prabowo conveyed his astonishment regarding the assassination attempt on Trump during his campaign and expressed relief at Trump’s survival. Trump responded, “Yes, I got very lucky. I just happened to be in the right place with the right direction; otherwise, I wouldn’t be talking to you right now.”

Additionally, Prabowo met with representatives from several U.S. companies in Washington, including Freeport McMoRan and Chevron, and encouraged them to consider investing in Indonesia.
