Native Americans quit talks on Keystone XL pipeline
Leaders of Native American tribes have pulled out of talks with US federal officials to express their outrage over a planned oil pipeline and the contamination of their ancestral lands as a result of the project.
The leaders from 11 tribes walked out of a meeting in Rapid City on May 16, and called on US President Barack Obama to engage in direct negotiations with them over the Keystone XL pipeline.
