Never expected this. 12 countries are offering assistance TO the US.
CNN’s Charles Keyes:
The State Department refused Tuesday to provide details of what countries had offered assistance with the oil spill off the Louisiana coast.
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said 12 countries and international organizations had offered assistance but would not provide details.
“One more time. Do we know who the 12 are? We do,” Crowley said at his afternoon briefing. “Are we going to announce them publicly? We’re not.”
Why the intrigue?
Who really is responsible for the oil leak?
