I find John F’n Kerry as repulsive as any other person on this forum, but I’m willing to cut him some slack over this. I’m still not sure how to pronounce this. Our General Services Officer in Havana was universally loathed by the US Mission there. We were all elated when she got reassigned to the US Embassy in Bishkek, Krgwhateverstan.
the Secretary of State doesn't know how to pronounce the name of an ally??? No, he should be ridiculed off the stage at every opportunity. Every time. If he were the Sec. of Interior or HHS, perhaps, but not the Secretary of State.
