Who Knew? Robert Blake Is Apparently the Assistant Secretary of State
The things you learn reading the international press. According to the Gulf Times of Doha, Qatar, the U.S. is currently in the middle of talks to sell the Indian Airforce $4.4 billion worth of C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft. And who’s at the helm of these multi-billion dollar negotiations? Why, none other than Assistant Secretary of State Robert Blake. Yes, that Robert Blake according to the photo.
And we thought Obama’s appointment of Larry Summers was bad. No wonder the U.S. has such PR problems in the Arab world.
Just to clarify for our friends in Doha, we think this was the Robert Blake you were referring to.
