Two U.S. Senators Held at Russian Airport
Sens. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., and Barack Obama, D-Ill., who had been visiting storage sites for weapons of mass destruction, were held at an airport in the Ural Mountain city of Perm for several hours but were allowed to leave after talks between U.S. and Russian officials.
"I am in Ukraine with Sen. Lugar," Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Lugar's spokesman, Andy Fisher, said in a message sent from a personal messaging device Sunday afternoon.
Sorry. Pulled every last string remaining but Obama's coming back, and yeah, Luger too. Hey, an old buddy at the consulate owed me a favor and all we can do is try.
