We’ve seen scenes like this before in Europe. Every Russian has lived or learned about the horrific siege of Leningrad during World War II... It’s shameful. The world is saying to Russia, stop these attacks immediately. Let the food and medicine in. Let the people out safely and end this war of choice against the Ukraine.
Blinken draws parallels between current events and historical sieges, urging Russia to cease attacks.

If Israel launches a major military operation into Rafah then there are systems we are not going to be supporting and supplying for that operation.
We need to keep up this momentum. That requires a State Department budget that we fully resource.
We are working to do that. Obviously, in the countries that have been on the receiving end of coups, there are some limits that we have to abide by.
We have done and we will continue to do everything we can to, if we can do it, develop the information and share the information.
