Somalia's Defence Minister Rejects Trump's Insults

The U.S. President, Donald Trump, made some mean comments about people from Somalia.

He called them names and said bad things about their country.

The defence minister of Somalia, Ahmed Moallim Fiqi, said that Somalis won't accept being talked about like that.

He said Somalis are hardworking and resilient.

Trump has been saying these things because of a recent shooting, but the person charged with that crime is from Afghanistan, not Somalia.

Trump has also been targeting a Congresswoman from Somalia, Ilhan Omar, and wants her to be deported.

The Somali minister said Trump should focus on his own country instead of insulting Somalia.
