MINSK, 11 September (BelTA) – U.S President Donald Trump has presented Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko with cufflinks featuring an image of the White House – the official residence of U.S. presidents in Washington. The gift was handed over to the Belarusian head of state  by U.S. President’s representative John Coale during their meeting in Minsk, BelTA has learned.

“As I was leaving the Oval Office, he [Donald Trump] said: ‘Wait, come back, don’t forget to give this to the president’,” John Coale remarked.

“Interesting cufflinks with the White House image on them,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said, examining the gift. "Well, I'll try not to be in his debt."
