Winston Peters says Donald Trump's team is "well-informed" about what's happening in our part of the world. 

The Foreign Minister met with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and key officials in the US last week. 

The visit comes as New Zealand waits to see if we'll get any exemptions from Trump's tariffs. 

Peters told Mike Hosking Rubio, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, and the others he met with, were very aware of developments in our region. 

He says they were seriously well-advised and much better-prepared than some people he's met from previous administrations.
