WASHINGTON -- Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker John Boehner (click here) have declined invitations to meet with a planned delegation of Russian lawmakers to discuss Syria.
Reid spokesman Adam Jentleson confirmed Thursday that Reid had turned down the offer. Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said the speaker had also declined the offer.
"We are really disappointed by their decision not to meet with their Russian colleagues," said Maxim Abramov, spokesman for the Russian Embassy.
Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed on Monday to send a delegation of Russian lawmakers to the United States to discuss the situation in Syria with members of Congress....
Sharing is caring, Harry. The Russians just wanted to share. Not very open minded I suppose.
Perhaps there is such a thing as The Russian Flu that Harry has no vaccine for.
