Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto asked U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday if he could meet with Trump's son Eric, an executive vice president of the Trump Organization, according to comments by the leaders picked up by a microphone after Trump had addressed a Gaza-focused summit in Egypt.
The talks will focus on trying to create a long-term plan for peace, and will be led by President Trump and Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. The aim of the meeting is to agree on the next phase of the peace deal to try to end the war in Gaza.
Donald Trump has made an awkward Middle East geographical blunder as he heads to Israel for the release of hostages from Gaza. Trump, 79, was talking to journalists on Air Force One on Sunday when he praised the role of Qatar in the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The deal appears to mark a potential turning point in a conflict which has claimed thousands of lives and destabilised the Middle East.
