President Trump declared Wednesday that he was hit by the Englishman of Liberian President Joseph Boakai during a meeting with the African heads of state in the White House.

“Such a good English,” he said after Boakai spoke.

“Where were you educated? Where? In Liberia? Well, it’s very interesting. It’s a beautiful English,” Trump said during a joint press conference.

“I have people at this table that cannot speak almost as much,” he added.

English is the official language of Liberia, a nation in West Africa founded in the early 1800s by philanthropists, abolitionists and some slaves owners who tried to reset free blacks.

The town, located on the Western African coast, also has several indigenous languages ​​and a variation of English known as Liberian English.

Boakai was educated at the University of Monrovia, in the capital of the country that takes its name from the President of the United States James Monroe, and later served under the former President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the first female leader of Liberia.

In response to the criticisms of Trump’s comments in Boakai, a spokesman for the White House declared to the New York Times in a declaration that “only false news could so pathetically separate the sincere compliment of President Trump during a meeting that marked a historical moment for US-Africa relationships”.

Trump invited the leaders of Gabon, Senegal, Mauritania and Guinea-Bissau, as well as other African nations full of natural resources, at the meeting of the White House on Wednesday after signing an executive order in March to increase the production of American minerals.

The Trump administration has closed the agreements with China and Ukraine as regards access to their rare earth deposits at the beginning of this year.

The real GDP of Liberia should grow around 5 % in 2025, led by the continuous expansion of the mines, in particular to gold and the improvements of agriculture and services, according to the World Bank.

The nation has a population of 5.7 million and has attracted foreign interests for its wealth of minerals of rare lands and neodymium in metal of the rare earth, according to the organization.

“Liberia is a longtime friend of the United States and we believe in your policy to make America great again,” Boakai said in Trump, before congratulating his language style.

Other African leaders echoed to the same feeling in support of “America First” policies, citing opportunities for economic collaboration.
