 So with that in mind, Jen PTUI Psaki, State Department spokeswoman, originally claimed the meeting had been organized and funded by Georgetown University. However the university said that wasnât the case when contacted by the Washington Free Beacon.
In a conference with reporters on Monday, PTUI Psaki said, âUnfortunately, I didnât have the accurate information on one small piece. The meeting was set up by the Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy, a nonprofit. So the visit was not funded, as you know, by us or the U.S. Government, but it was also not funded by Georgetown.â |
