Washington Post: Cruz criticizes Obama and Trump in wake of Brussels attack
Sen. Ted Cruz slammed President Obama for “going to baseball games with the Castros” in Cuba and Donald Trump for questioning the need for the U.S. alliance with NATO in the wake of Tuesday's terrorist attacks in Brussels.
“While our friends and allies are attacked by radical Islamic terrorists, President Obama is spending his time going to baseball games with the Castros and standing at a press conference with Raul Castro as a prop, while Castro denies there are any political prisoners in Cuba,” Cruz told reporters in Washington.
The Republican presidential hopeful also said Trump, a rival for the GOP nomination, said he would withdraw the United States from NATO. (Trump did not say the United States should withdraw from NATO, but he questioned U.S. involvement in the organization and said it may need to be diminished in the future in an interview with The Washington Post editorial board.)

The Russian Foreign Ministry's response is more interesting.

And, as usual, the Nazi morons in Kiev didn't miss an opportunity to pull their pants down and bare their (dum)asses to the world.

RRH. I read the report from Kiev that links today's Brussel attacks to Russia. I just shook my head.
I thought Canada's foreign policy statements were stupid but Ukraine is just off the wall. No wonder they're so buddy buddy with Ottawa; a lot of time to chat on the way to school in the short bus.
To point to Obama in Cuba is a cheap shot by Cruz and shows he is hardly a decent sort to lead the nation. What does he expect Obama to do? What about all the leaders of NATO nations and the EU? Are they to rush to Brussels and search for the perps?
President Obama is thinking on how good doe's Argentinians ribeye steak are going to be on his visit to Argentina .
