Linda Thomas-Greenfield: “Russia's brutal, illegal, and unprovoked further invasion into Ukraine.”

President Putin miscalculated. He miscalculated how strong our partnership with Europe (INAUDIBLE), and he miscalculated NATO.

We are stronger than we ever were before in terms of the European Union, NATO. All of this was not part of Putin`s plan. I think he thought that we would start to fray around the edges very, very quickly.

We are prepared to have an open dialogue with the North Koreans without preconditions. We want to pursue diplomacy.

basic humanitarian assistance should never be held hostage to political disagreements.
