Donald Trump has praised the president of Liberia for speaking “such good English”, seemingly unaware that Liberia’s official language is, in fact, English.
The awkward remark was made as the U.S. president hosted five African leaders on Wednesday for lunch at the White House to discuss potential economic opportunities.
After inviting Liberian president Joseph Boakai to address the group, Trump thanked him and noted: “Such good English. Where did you learn to speak so beautifully?”
