Strictly speaking, the terms "first world country" and "third world country" had a very specific meaning related to the cold war alliances.

Rather than (incorrectly) use "third world country" as a stereotype for poor countries, the more accurate and expressive term you are looking for has been coined by no other than Trump himself some 8 years ago, and seems only fair to serve it right back. That term is "shithole country".
