MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US presidential contender Donald Trump has said that Chinese leader Xi Jinping wrote him a "beautiful note" following the assassination attempt on him at the Pennsylvania rally.
"I got along very well with President Xi. He’s a great guy, wrote me a beautiful note the other day when he heard about what happened," Trump told a rally in Michigan on Saturday night.
The former president added that "most of the leaders did" a similar thing, without specifying which politicians reached out to him.
A 20-year-old man tried to assassinate Trump at a campaign rally in the state of Pennsylvania last Saturday, but the bullet from the gunman's AR assault rifle grazed Trump's right ear. US Secret Service agents killed the gunman moments after he was able to fire several rounds toward the stage, killing one spectator and critically injuring two others.
The FBI continues to investigate the shooting, but the suspect's motive remains unknown, according to US law enforcement.
