 Reports of what she said are not totally consistent, but when translated into English it was reported that she had described the diplomatic posting to England as one to an "enemy country" or "enemy territory" (""Wir sind im feindlichen Ausland"").Someone reported the remark to the press and an embassy spokesmen hastened to reassure anyone listening that she had intended to use the less offensive word "fremdlich" ("foreign") and not the toxic word "Feind" ("enemy").Reports of Daisy Schlitter's remarks were picked up in London by the Daily Sketch, an English tabloid newspaper, and from there gained wider press traction internationally.
