Romney Says He Doesn’t Know or Agree With Advisers Who Spoke to British Press

Romney Says He Doesn’t Know or Agree With Advisers Who Spoke to British Press

LONDON — Mitt Romney said today that he is “not sure” who the advisers are who spoke anonymously to a British newspaper but said that he disagrees with their suggestion that Obama doesn’t understand the relationship between the U.K. and the U.S.

“Well, first of all, I– I’m– I’m generally not enthusiastic about– adopting the comments made by people who are unnamed,” Romney said in an interview with NBC News. “I have a lot of advisers.”

“So I’m not sure who this person is. But I can tell you that we have a very special relationship between the United States and Great Britain,” said Romney. “It goes back to our very beginnings– cultural and– and– historical.”

Romney was greeted upon arriving in London earlier today by a story in The Telegraph newspaper that used quotes from two unnamed advisers who were critical of the president.
