Buffett has sung Cook's praise in the past, too. In his 2021 letter to Berkshire shareholders, he wrote, "Tim Cook, Apple's brilliant CEO, quite properly regards users of Apple products as his first love, but all of his other constituencies benefit from Tim's managerial touch as well."

US President Donald Trump has reportedly told Apple CEO Tim Cook that he does not want him "building in India" and stated that "India can take care of themselves". Speaking at a business gathering in Doha, the US President remarked that he had a "little problem" with Tim Cook.

Told Apple CEO Tim Cook we're not interested in you building in India, they can take care of themselves," says Trump in Doha
