We want to send a single, unambiguously clear message to the Russian Federation that this is unacceptable. This is something that we take very seriously.

It is never in our interest to see Russian aircraft and American aircraft coming to such close contact. We want to make clear as we did today, as we did yesterday, that this kind of activity should cease.

We would wish to see from the PRC a greater degree of responsibility, a greater acknowledgement that it is in the interest of the Chinese people, yes, to better understand the origins of COVID-19, but it is in the interest of people around…

If we don't stand up, to what the Russians are trying, to do, in Ukraine, we will undermine that international system, that international order.

The type of propaganda, the type of bluster that we're hearing, from the Kremlin, is deeply irresponsible.

We've sent a very strong message to our Moldovan partners that the United States stands with them. We stand behind the sovereignty, the independence, the territorial integrity, of our Moldovan partners.

President Biden likes to say that big nations don’t bluff. President Putin now knows that the United States wasn’t bluffing.

We have communicated very clearly to Beijing, that we won`t stand by if -- we will not allow any country to compensate Russia for its losses.

Anderson, we are providing our Ukrainian partners, with precisely what they need, to fight, and to engage in self-defense. They've been doing so, with courage, with bravery, and with dignity, and will continue to do that.

If, in fact, Russian forces do intentionally target civilians, there will be massive profound consequences, for war crimes, for atrocities, for human rights abuses.
