The request from Prabowo Subianto at the Gaza peace summit in Egypt comes as the Trump Organisation is set to open new properties in Indonesia

Indonesian president Prabowo Subianto has been heard on a hot mic asking Donald Trump if he can meet with the president’s son Eric, as the leaders gathered in Egypt for a summit aimed at securing a lasting peace in Gaza.

Prabowo appeared to be unaware that a live microphone was recording his conversation as he spoke to the president and referenced a region that is “not safe, security-wise”. He 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.”

Eric Trump and his brother Donald Trump Jr both serve as executive vice-presidents of the Trump Organisation.
