When Obama’s Done Embracing Socialist Dictators He Might Have Time To Meet With Columbian Leader
You know. Alvaro Uribe. The President of our solid trade partner, and one of our few friends in South America, Colombia.
PORT OF SPAIN (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama hopes to meet with Colombian President Alvaro Uribe on the sidelines of the Summit of the Americas to discuss a stalled trade agreement, a U.S. official said on Saturday.
Obama and Uribe are both attending a summit of hemispheric leaders in Trinidad and Tobago.
The U.S. official said Uribe, a conservative and ally of former President George W. Bush, brought up the issue of trade during a multi-lateral meeting between Obama and leaders from South American countries on Saturday morning.
“The president would very much like to be able to talk to Uribe further during this summit on a potential pull-aside at some point,” the official said, referring to a possible one-on-one visit.
Maybe Uribe should call Obama an “ignoramus.”
