Pelosi shrugs off White House criticism
2007-04-02
BEIRUT, Lebanon - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday shrugged off White House criticism of her upcoming trip to Damascus, saying she had "great hope" for reviving U.S. relations with Syria and changing its behavior.

[White House spokeswoman Dana Perino] said it "sends the wrong message to have high-level U.S. officials going there (to Syria) to have photo opportunities that Assad then exploits."

But Pelosi said she thinks it's a good idea to "establish facts, to hopefully build the confidence" between the U.S. and Syria. "We have no illusions, but we have great hope," she said.
