During a meeting with African leaders at the United Nations, President Trump reportedly made a comment to President George Weah of Liberia, asking him, "Where did you learn English?" This question may have been perceived as surprising or even disrespectful by some, considering that English is the official language of Liberia and has been since the country's founding in the early 19th century. Liberia was indeed established by freed American slaves and their descendants, with significant support from the American Colonization Society, which is why English is so prevalent in the nation. The country's education system is also based on the American model, which would explain President Weah's proficiency in the language. It appears that President Trump might not have been fully aware of Liberia's historical ties to the United States and the prevalence of English within the country.
