He didn't even have to kiss that much, just not take the bait and move on. This was pathetically poor diplomacy for the leader of a country dependent on the largesse of its donor
Also, clearly no adults in the room. Just varying degrees of Einsteins. And no idea why he was baited publicly, maybe a miscalculation of response. But no half intelligent recipient would take that bait. Remarkably bad.

if leader of another 3rd world country I can think of, had done this I'd be even more eviscerating. Fwiw, even those guys are not that stupid
