US President Donald Trump on Thursday once again denounced the “repressive regimes” of Cuba, Venezuela, Iran and North Korea and said that his administration is on the side of all those people around the world suffering “persecution” because of their religious faith. The two leaders - who met for about 15 minutes at the Washington Hilton, where they were both attending the National Prayer Breakfast - also spoke about immigration and the similarity in their respective policies vis-a-vis Israel. The leaders, Morales said, spoke about “the excellent relations that we have had as nations since Guatemala supported the creation of the State of Israel” at the 1947 UN partition vote.
