Despite tensions, President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were both in attendance at an A-list party on Martha's Vineyard Wednesday night.

Conflict between the two political foes-turned-comrades developed after The Atlantic published an article on Sunday in which Clinton called President Obama's decision not to assist Syrian rebels early on  a "failure." She also dismissed the Obama administration's self-described foreign policy principle of "Don't do stupid stuff," which she said is not an "organizing principle" for "great nations."

After catching heat over her remarks criticizing Obama's foreign policy, Clinton reportedly called the president to patch things up. Her aids also said that she looked forward to "hugging it out" with her former boss Wednesday evening during a birthday party for the wife of Vernon Jordan, a Democratic heavyweight who served as an adviser under the Clinton administration, reports the Wall Street Journal.

Although there is no word on whether the two did literally hug or not, White House spokesman Eric Schultz released a statement about the president's night at the event.

"The president and first lady also were happy to have the chance to spend time with Secretary Clinton and former President Clinton," read the statement, according to the Huffington Post.

Schultz also confirmed that the top Democrats have maintained a "close and resilient relationship." He added that "The president appreciates her counsel and advice, but more importantly, he appreciates her friendship."

However, not everyone in Obama's camp has been as forgiving.

In response to Clinton's comments, Obama's former senior political advisor David Axelrod slammed Clinton on her decision to vote in favor of the Iraq War back in 2003 when she was a senator.

"Just to clarify: 'Don't do stupid stuff' means stuff like occupying Iraq in the first place, which was a tragically bad decision," Axelrod tweeted on Tuesday.

In turn, Clinton's support behind President George W. Bush's Iraq invasion hurt her during her 2008 presidential election campaign, leading Obama, a vocal opponent of the war, to eventually become president.
