India's foreign minister, SM Krishna, was congratulated by his contemporaries from other countries who marveled at his ability to fluently translate the Portuguese to English. "He hadn't ever heard the Portuguese Minister's speech. I know this because he and I were both asleep while it was being delivered," said French Foreign Minister Michèle Jeanne Honorine Alliot-Marie.
The BJP has made allegations that Krishna has secretly been courting Gisele Bundchen, the Brazilian super model. Said a senior representative of the BJP: "He learnt how to speak Portuguese so he could serenade her in her own language."
Krishna laughed at the suggestion, saying that Gisele doesn't speak Portuguese, she only speaks English and Brazilian. "Portugal is an amazing country with a great soccer team. I've learnt the language so I can cheer along with other soccer fans."
Apparently Krishna has been learning the language for several years now and decided to showcase his newfound skills at the latest meeting of the United Nations in the US. "It's been a secret passion of mine for many years, to speak Portuguese fluently, and when I found the Portuguese minister's speech, just lying there on the lectern, I decided to make a go of it. Of course, I was inspired by this recent photo of Indian badminton superstar, Saina Nehwal, which I now carry in my wallet."
