Washington, August 14: United States President Donald Trump has a long list of errors and faux pas moments. According to a report, Trump mispronounced the names of Nepal and Bhutan during a White House meeting in 2017. While he called Nepal 'nipple', Bhutan was 'button' according to him.
A report in Politico says that Donald Trump didn't even know that Nepal and Bhutan were two countries. The report quoting two unnamed sources said that Trump was surprised when he was told that Nepal and Bhutan were countries and not parts of India. The report says that Trump was studying a South Asia map ahead of his meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi when he said, "What is this stuff in between and these other countries?”
The report adds that Trump even joked about Modi's marital status when he was told that Modi didn't live with his wife. “Ah, I think I can set him up with somebody," Trump reportedly quipped when he was told about Modi's marriage.
Trump had earlier stirred a row after he had termed several African nations as “shithole countries.” Trump had even branded the European Union as the “foe” of America.
