Trump is ignoring questions about human rights abuses as he meets with the president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte (doo-TEHR'-tay), on the sidelines of an international summit in Manila.
Trump says he and Duterte have "had a great relationship." He's also applauding the Philippines' on their staging of the conference.
Trump says he enjoyed the event's opening dinner and says, "We very much appreciated the great treatment you've given."
Duterte has come under fierce criticism from human rights groups for overseeing a violent drug war complete with extrajudicial killings.
Trump has previously praised Duterte's handling of his nation's drug problems.
Trump did not respond to shouted questions about whether he'd raise the issue. Duterte says their bilateral meeting is not a press conference.
President Donald Trump says he'll be delivering a "major statement" when he's back in Washington to discuss what he's accomplished on his big Asia trip.
Trump says during a meeting with Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Malcolm Turnbull, the prime minister of Australia that "it will be a very complete statement as to trade, as to North Korea, as to a lot of other things."
He says, "We've made some very big steps with regard to trade-far bigger than anything you know," in addition to business deals forged between US and foreign companies.
"Except us," Turnbull chimed in.
Trump says the three leaders will be talking about North Korea, trade and other subjects.
He says he'll wait to Wednesday to give the reporters traveling with him time to sleep.
Trump will also be having an informal dinner later Monday with Turnbull.
A day after being criticised by President Donald Trump, a former CIA director questioned whether Russian President Vladimir Putin was manipulating Trump with flattery during the president's lengthy trip to Asia.
Trump's trip is meant to be centered on trade and North Korea, and on Monday he is set to talk with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte (doo-TEHR'-tay). But Trump remains dogged by things he has said, and not said, about Russia.
John Brennan said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union" that Trump is trying to "delegitimise" the US intelligence community's assessment that Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential election to help Trump defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Brennan says Putin is "very clever in terms of playing to Mr. Trump's interest in being flattered." He says it demonstrates that Trump "can be played by foreign leaders."Monday
