Donald Trump joked about world leaders he 'doesn't like at all' in a speech to the world's media at a Gaza peace summit in Egypt.
Leaders from across the world stood behind the US President as he delivered a speech for around half an hour in Sharm El-Sheikh following the signing of an historic peace deal in the Middle East which has brought an end to the war in Gaza.
During the speech, Mr Trump read out a list of countries who were present for the summit and praised many of them for their work either towards peace in the middle east or in various other international conflicts.
In turn the US leader offered mostly warm remarks and praises for those leaders, even referring to Sir Keir Starmer as 'his friend'.
However, Mr Trump also told the crowds that there were 'a few' of the heads of state who he 'did not like at all'.
After initially declaring that he would never reveal who they were, the President teased 'maybe you will'.
'I have known so many of you for so long. You are friends of mine, you are great people.
'I have a couple I don't like in particular but I won't tell you who.
'I have actually a few of them I don't like at all but you will never find out who they are.
'Maybe you will, come to think of it.'
Sir Keir Starmer had an awkward interaction with Mr Trump during the speech, after he was invited to the front of the stage.
He initially received a warm welcome from the US leader, who referred to the Prime Minister as 'his friend'.
The President said: 'Come up here, is everything going good?' Starmer awkwardly replied 'very good' as he turned toward the microphone.
The US leader then stepped in front of Starmer and continued his speech. He said: 'It is very nice that you are here. These people all came on like 20 minute notice and I think it is fantastic.'
Sir Keir looked around awkwardly before slowly scuttling back to his place on the stage, sharing a faint smile with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
One leader who did not receive praise from Mr Trump was Norwegian President Jonas Gahr Støre.
After reading 'Norway' on the list of countries who were present for the summit, Trump said: 'We have Norway. Oh, Norway, aye aye aye! Norway, what happened? Norway, what happened?'
The disappointed remark was likely to be a reference to the Nobel Peace Prize, which was given to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado.
The US President's name, heavily floated in the media in recent weeks, did not make the final cut.
The two-time US President has been on a not-so-subtle Nobel Prize campaign since his first term in office when he claimed 'many people' thought he had earned it.
However the most recent prize honoured actions carried out in 2024, which was the year in which he was elected but not yet in office.
At the summit, Trump joked that Mr Støre was 'hiding' from him following the snub.
He said: 'Where is Norway, where is he? I don't think he wants to stand.'
Mr Trump then noticed Mr Støre stood in the crowd away from the stage.
Another world leader who had a frosty reception from President Trump was Emmanuel Macron, who received an ominous warning from the US leader.
Trump drew the French president in for a warm handshake before the pair each placed an affectionate hand on the other's upper arm in front of a large crowd of photographers.
The embrace soon turned into something akin to an arm wrestle as the two presidents exchanged what seemed like intense conversation while swinging their opposite number’s hand from side to side.
Macron eventually freed himself from Trump’s grasp and hurried off the stage.
However, lip reader Nicola Hickling told the Daily Mail that the handshake was much more than just a casual greeting between the two leaders.
‘Nice to see you, so you agreed?’ Trump told Macron who soon turned away from the camera and muttered an inaudible response.
‘Are you being genuine?’ Trump asks as Macron quickly replies, ‘Of course.’
The commander-in-chief then tightens his grips around Macron’s palm before shooting back, ‘Okay, so now I want to know why, you hurt me. I already know.’
Trump’s awkward handshake with Macron took a dramatic turn when the world leader’s greeted each other.
It’s not clear what the pair were speaking about; however, it comes weeks after Macron was seen mocking Trump with world leaders.
The two leaders have a colorful history together, often seeming to appear friendly despite occasionally criticizing each other in public.
Speaking slowly and clearly Trump says, ‘I am making peace.’
Macron then taps Trump’s hand and replies, ‘Ah come on’, while Trump ignores and grasps tighter.
‘I only hurt those who hurt others,’ Trump tells Macron while pointing at the cameras.
‘I see. We will have to see about that,’ Macron says before issuing a stark warning to Trump. ‘You will see what is about to happen.’
Trump concludes,’I’d like to see you do it, do it. I’ll see you in a bit.’
The President was more complimentary to world leaders who have supported him in the past, including Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
