Wendy Sherman

She fought for democracy and human rights her entire life.

I think that there will be actions for accountability, whether that's at the ICC, at the U.N. Human Rights Council.

Our relationship with India is a very critical one. They're the largest democracy in the world.

These things take time to make sure you have the right person.

I think you will have seen in the Secretary's meeting in the Negev Desert with Abraham Accord partners and Israel that our partnerships and alliances are as important in our negotiations with Iran as they are in our standing up to Putin in…

I believe that diplomacy is often supported by a credible threat of force.

The United States would regard any effort to determine the future of Taiwan both other than peaceful means a threat to the peace and security of the Western Pacific.

If China in any way, shape, or form provides material support to Putin in this premeditated unjust and unprovoked invasion, there will be consequences.

We are seeing some signs of a willingness to have real serious negotiations, but I have to say, as your reporter said, so far, it appears that Vladimir Putin is intent on destroying Ukraine.

Vladimir Putin should understand that body bags will come back to Moscow as well that the citizens of Russia will suffer because their economy will be completely devastated.

At the request of the Iraqi Government, we have agreed that U.S. military forces will remain in Iraq to focus on training, enabling, and advising our Iraqi partners.

The real answer to this is the one that you were implying and that is to have a political resolution and bring any conflict to an end.

President Biden is committed to engaging with Congress on questions of war and peace, and to being open and transparent about when, where, why, and how the United States chooses to use military force.

I believe this hearing is also about our democracy, and the democratic values we model around the world.

I want to state clear that the Biden/Harris administration believes the 2002 authorization for the use of military force against Iraq has outlived its usefulness and should be repealed.

The fact is, the 2002 AUMF is no longer necessary to protect the American people from terrorism.

In fact, repeal says we have succeeded. Repeal says that the time of Saddam Hussein is over.

The Biden-Harris administration believes the 2002 Authorization for the Use of Military Force against Iraq has outlived its usefulness and should be repealed.

Your efforts have been instrumental in making sure that all parties to the conflict understand that the United States urgently seeks an immediate end to hostilities, unconditional humanitarian access, accountability for atrocities, and a…

Yes. The United States remains concerned about the disproportionate focus by the U.N. Human Rights Council on Israel, including Agenda Item 7.

When the United States plays an active and constructive role on the Council, we can better advocate to protect Israel from unfair bias on the Council.

I am committed to seeking HRC reforms, particularly regarding the Council's disproportionate focus on Israel.

The U.N. Human Rights Council plays an important role in promoting and protecting human rights, humanitarian access, and fundamental freedoms globally, but has serious flaws as well.

The United States is committed to seeking reforms of the U.N. Human Rights Council, particularly with respect to the Council's disproportionate focus on Israel and its problematic membership.

I strongly support President Biden's public commitment to raise the ceiling for refugee admissions to 125,000 for fiscal year 2022.
