President Donald Trump says he plans to do "lots of deals" with Indonesia as he sits down with the country's president.
Trump tells reporters at the start of a meeting with President Joko Widodo that the two have become friends and says: "We're going to be doing a lot of deals together."
He said the U.S. and Indonesia currently have a limited trade relationship, but says: "We will start doing a lot of trading with Indonesia."
Jokowi offered Trump "warm greetings" from his "millions of fans" in Indonesia and said they all want to know when Trump will visit.
Trump responded: "We'll get there, we'll get there. It's a place I'd like to go."
