Former US President Donald Trump shared a letter he received from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas condemning the assassination attempt against him at a campaign event.

Abbas's letter said that "acts of violence must not have a place in a world of law and order".

The image Trump shared also showed his written response to Abbas's letter.

"Mahmoud – So nice – Thank you – Everything will be good," the former US president wrote.
