Linda Thomas-Greenfield: “I assure you that, if confirmed, I will keep as my top priority working to ensure the safety and security of U.S.…”

The president has been clear. The secretary has been clear in his discussions with the Israelis that there has to be a plan to ensure for the safety of civilians in Gaza.

We absolutely support Israel's right to defend itself from this brutal attack on its own territory that we all witnessed at over the weekend.

Absolutely. We have been clear since the Biden administration came on board that we are prepared to have an open dialogue with the North Koreans without preconditions.

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