‘My insufficient command of English’: Mark Rutte explains why he called Trump ‘daddy,’ says ‘I am living with it’

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte clarified his use of the term “Daddy” for Donald Trump, attributing it to a language slip-up during a discussion about Iran’s nuclear facilities. Rutte described the remark as unintentional, stemming from his “insufficient command of the English language.” He acknowledged Trump’s good-natured reaction, noting the nickname’s subsequent viral spread.
