Obama Urges Renewed Alliance With Europe in Berlin Speech
by FOXNews.com
Thursday, July 24, 2008

Barack Obama, summoning images from the Cold War, told a Berlin audience Thursday that America and Europe cannot let new walls divide them as they face down common threats.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee took the podium at his first major speech of his overseas trip to a cheering audience of thousands.

Expectations were high for the speech, and he was already under criticism from Republicans for staging what they said amounted to a campaign rally in Germany.

MSNBC a écrit:

*** UPDATE *** From NBC's Jim Miklaszewski and Courtney Kube
A U.S. military official tells NBC News they were making preparations for Sen. Barack Obama to visit wounded troops at the Landstuhl Medical Center at Ramstein, Germany on Friday, but "for some reason the visit was called off."

One military official who was working on the Obama visit said because political candidates are prohibited from using military installations as campaign backdrops, Obama's representatives were told, "he could only bring two or three of his Senate staff member, no campaign officials or workers." In addition,
"Obama could not bring any media. Only military photographers would be permitted to record Obama's visit."

[/b]The official said "We didn't know why" the request to visit the wounded troops was withdrawn. "He (Obama) was more than welcome. We were all ready for him.[b]" http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/07/24/1220011.aspx

McCain accuse Obama d'ignorer les «héros américains blessés
Douglas Daniel
Associated Press
Washington

John McCain a sévèrement critiqué la décision de Barack Obama d'annuler une visite aux soldats américains blessés basés en Allemagne lors de sa tournée à l'étranger, affirmant que le candidat démocrate avait choisi les fastes des dirigeants et citoyens européens plutôt que les «héros américains blessés».

Lors de sa visite en Allemagne jeudi, le sénateur de l'Illinois devait rendre visite aux soldats américains blessés stationnés sur la base de Rammstein et à l'hôpital militaire de Landstuhl, avant de finalement se raviser.

Le camp Obama a d'abord expliqué que le Pentagone avait rappelé que toute activité de campagne politique est prohibée sur un territoire militaire. Avant d'affirmer que le candidat démocrate avait lui-même jugé «déplacé» de se rendre sur une base militaire alors qu'il était en visite à l'étranger à des fins de campagne électorale. Le Pentagone a toutefois assuré ne jamais avoir formellement empêché Barack Obama de se rendre à l'hôpital de Landstuhl.

Why is Barack Obama ignoring the foreign press?
Times London
July 25, 2008
The McCain campaign has described Obama's visit to London as nothing more than a photocall. This response has little to recommend it politically. But there is one advantage to it. It gets pretty close to the truth.

A major theme of the Obama campaign is that he will mend America's broken relationship with its allies. He will talk to the world, not just to Texas.

Which makes this a more important question than it might otherwise be - why is Barack Obama ignoring the foreign press?

He hasn't, as yet, given an interview to a foreign newspaper. He doesn't, as far as I know, have any foreign press on his plane on this trip. He has received many requests by foreign journalists to accompany him on his travels in the US, but has turned them all down.

This is strikingly different from John McCain.

Perhaps Obama doesn't want to face the sort of questions he fears might be put to him - on free trade, on Iraq, and on how his foreign policy would differ from George Bush's.
