Residents of the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s capital, Kinshasa reacted to feedback made by US President Donald Trump about international migrants last week.
All the contrivance in which through a gathering with Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, President Trump spoke on curbing migration and the prerequisites of the US borders, telling his Italian counterpart, “many, many people come from the Congo. I don’t know what that is, but they came from the Congo and all over the world they came in.”
One Kinshasa resident, Jonathan Bawolo spoke back to Trump’s observation by asserting, “we are a country that is so rich that we’re not selfish, and we don’t harass foreigners in the streets to ask for their identity papers”.
It became once no longer the first time the American president has made such statements about an African nation.
In March, President Trump declared that no one had ever heard of Lesotho at some level of a speech criticising some U.S. international serve contracts as a ruin of money.
