Obamas' sartorially match colours for White House envoys reception

Washington, July 28 (ANI): A reception for ambassadors held in the Grand Foyer of The White House Monday night saw the Obamas' exhibiting a united front, both philosophically and sartorially, reports the Huffington Post.

U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama wore a sheath with a white skirt, black bodice, and red ribbon belt. Her hair was worn down and elegantly slicked back.

The president was perfectly in sync with his wife, wearing a black suit, white shirt, and red tie.

From a philosophical angle, President Barack Obama described diplomacy as being more important now than ever before.

He told ambassadors to the United States that his administration was committed to working with countries to advance common goals, and that he looked forward to working with them to advance peace and prosperity.

Obama said diplomats previously discussed war and peace, but they now discuss everything from education, environment and even athletics.

He emphasized that the United States cannot solve its problems unless the solutions involve cooperation among nations. (ANI)
