United States President-elect
Donald Trump on Thursday reiterated his praise for Italian
Premier Giorgia Meloni after meeting her at the reopening of the
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris on Sunday.
"She's a fantastic leader and person," Trump said in reply to a
question about Meloni from Class CNBC on Wall Street after he
rang the bell for the opening of the stock exchange.
Earlier this week Trump described Meloni as "a real live wire"
and said meeting her in Paris was "great" in an interview with
the New York Post.
Trump, 78, told the Post that his meet-and-greet with Meloni was
"great" and that the Italian premier had "a lot of energy".
"I was with her a lot", Trump also said of the Italian premier,
telling the publication that they dined together during a
60-member world leader reception.
"We get along great", Trump was also quoted as saying by the New
York Post.
