Linda Thomas-Greenfield: “President Biden has stated a commitment to restoring U.S. credibility and leadership at the U.N.”

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

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.

It means that President Putin is continuing to escalate this war in a manner that is totally unacceptable.

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.
