US President Donald Trump made an unexpected comment with Syria's President Ahmed Al-Sharaa during a White House meeting on Monday, November 10.
In a now viral video, Trump is seen presenting Al-Sharaa with a bottle of perfume, spraying it on him and saying, "It's the best fragrance... And the other one is for your wife."
Trump asked Sharaa how many wives he had. “One,” Sharaa said.

Later on Sharaa tossed the same question back, and Trump replied: “Right now? One.” pic.twitter.com/H01tqR4wiz
He then jokingly quips, "How many wives?" to which Al-Sharaa replies, "One," followed by laughter. Trump then responds with, "You never know!"
During the visit, Al-Sharaa said he had presented Trump with symbolic gifts, replicas of ancient Syrian artefacts, including what he described as "the first alphabet in history, the first stamp in history, the first musical note, and the first customs tariff."
Trump vowed on Monday to do everything he can to make Syria successful after landmark talks with Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa.
