Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero on Tuesday inadvertently used the F word while expounding on a tourism agreement with Moscow in the presence of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev
The slip-up, which is being circulated in clips on the Internet, occurred at a joint press conference.
"There is a big increase in the number of Spanish tourists heading to Russia, the number is at 500,000, we have therefore decided to sign an agreement to stimulate, to favour, to f...(expletive)," he said, pausing briefly before ending the sentence with "to support this tourism".
In Spanish the expression "para follar," meaning "to f...(expletive)," is pronounced very similarly to the expression "para apoyar," or "to support".
