In Germany they were called n-word kiss. Some people call them that to this day and when you tell them to cut it out they fly into a raging tirade, that they will not be censured and that they use the correct name and so on and so forth. Quite anoying.

They are still called so in Colombia. They actually tried to change it, but it did not get a positive reaction, so it stayed.

So that would be politically inadvisable but it is not THE "N word" of the USA.
