House Speaker Nancy Pelosi calls the Notre Dame fire a 'tragedy.' 'I remember going there with my family when I was a girl and taking my own children there — my grandchildren going. And (it being) just sort of a central place of faith.'
Washington House Speaker Nancy Pelosi expressed sadness over the partial destruction of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris that was damaged Monday by a catastrophic fire, saying the building endured a"tragedy."
"So sad, what a tragedy. And just such a historic place. Of course a place of religion, a place of culture, a place of history," Pelosi told CNN's Christiane Amanpour Tuesday during an interview in Dublin, Ireland. "I remember going there with my family when I was a girl and taking my own children there -- my grandchildren going. And just sort of a central place of faith," she added.
