Romney: "Obama's 'reset' policy toward Russia has clearly failed"

Morton Grove Public Library, June 11

President Obama told then-Russian President Dmitri Medvedev three months ago that he would "have more flexibility" in regards to dealing with Russia in his second term--if he has one, of course. I shudder to think what that flexibility would entail, after all Obama sold out our Polish and Czech allies when he caved in to the Russians on missile defense three years ago.

Now we learn that the Russians are arming the brutal Syrian regime so the barbarians can slaughter their own people.

Mitt Romney issued the following statement this evening:

President Obama's 'reset' policy toward Russia has clearly failed. Russia has openly armed and protected a murderous regime in Syria, frustrated international sanctions on Iran, and opposed American efforts on a range of issues. This is an unfortunate failure of President Obama's foreign policy.
