Former US Secretary of State James Baker said Sunday that House Speaker John Boehner’s invitation to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to address Congress, which was extended without consulting the White House, is a breach of diplomatic protocol.
“I can’t remember an instance in which it’s been done,” said Baker, who was secretary of state under President George H.W. Bush, on CBS‘s “Face the Nation.”
