Reid: GOP Helps Russia

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid accused Republicans on Monday of helping Russia to annex Crimea. Referring to a stalled Ukraine aid package in the Senate, Reid told the Associated press "Since a few Republicans blocked these important sanctions last work period, Russian lawmakers voted to annex Crimea and Russian forces have taken over Ukrainian military bases. It's impossible to know whether events would have unfolded differently if the United States had responded to Russian aggression with a strong, unified voice." Michael steel, Boehner’s spokesman, responded to Reid’s comments, saying "The Senate Majority Leader sounds completely unhinged."
