Pelosi Blames GOP for Russian Annexation of Crimea During Obama Admin

preview

ADVERTISEMENTSHARESpeaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) on Wednesday blamed Russia’s annexation of Crimea on Republicans, though the invasion took place on President Barack Obama's watch.Pelosi slammed President Donald Trump and Republicans for their alleged inability to face Russian aggression—and tied them to President Barack Obama’s appeasement of Moscow.Pelosi was addressing reports that Russia may have paid bounties for U.S. servicemen killed in Afghanistan.&nbsp;She said the reports are evidence that Trump "lets the Russians get away with murder," but national security adviser Robert O’Brien said Trump had not been briefed about the bounties because intelligence officials had not found corroboration."The president was not briefed, because at the time of these allegations, they were uncorroborated," O’Brien said on Fox News. "And as a result, the president’s career CIA briefer decided not to brief him."Long before Trump became president, Republicans were Obama for not providing military aid to the Ukrainians as they faced down Russia, with then-senator John McCain (R., Ariz.) calling U.S. inaction "shameful."Pelosi voted with most of her House colleagues to affirm Ukraine's territorial integrity in March of 2014, but she did not publicly push back on the Obama administration for its inaction against Putin.Published under:, , ,Next Article
