How as a ‘retired naval four-star admiral’ on board with that?
Just imagine Putin’s delight upon seeing it!
Well, Obama did convey to Putin that he would have more flexibility after the election. I guess then the Russian flag would be more visible and in color.
Hey - I wonder who gave them the picture of the Russian ships?
The retired Admired probably didn’t even noticed them. He probably taken no part of the selection process. He most likely walked out there, saw some ships that looked old and didn’t really pay much attention. If he did notice he most likely wouldnt say anything there on stage.
