Lesotho Foreign Minister Mpojoan Lejone said that he was offended by US President Donald Trump, "No one has ever heard" about Lesotho.
Earlier, Trump said in the US Congress, said millions of dollars were spent on supporting Lesotho in South Africa, the existence of which "no one has ever heard."
The Lesotho Foreign Minister called this phrase of the American President insulting. "I'm really shocked that the head of the US state calls my country. Lesotho is a significant and unique country in the world.
I will be happy to invite the President to come to Lesotho to the whole world, "he told Reuters. The Minister added that the United States is also involved in the financing of the country's health and agriculture.
Lesotho has already experienced the impact of US funding, as the healthcare sector depends on it, but the government is looking for ways to become more self-sufficient, he said.
