Short, sweet, and to the point. Jake really makes these sessions a whole lot easier to digest.

USA should take care of their own people and country, enough is enough with USA interferences and warmongering over Europe.

[twocyborgdogs]

Their deceit, arrogance and greed shall come back to haunt them Amen

Russia expanded 4 regions today. What is the answer US. Sanction?

4 women on the bench, it's almost like you are prioritizing gender as a factor for a national board. Unpartial. Democratic party for ya 🤪

I enjoy being informed my Jake Sullivan. This man seems to tackle the questions head on unlike others that love to hear themselves speak and do circles around the question before they answer it. In my opinion he is very concise.

I'm 26 minutes into listening to this press conference and so far this video was interrupted 5 times with ads.

The land grab is not legal even by Russian standards and definitely not by anyone else's standards. Let's start with the de-nuclearization of Ukraine.
The Budapest Memorandum was an agreement signed in 1994 that provided assurances to Ukraine if it agreed to give up its nuclear weapons. The security agreement had the following assurances:
[1] The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine, in accordance with the principles of the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine
[2] The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America reaffirm their obligation to refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Ukraine, and that none of their weapons will ever be used against Ukraine
[3] The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America reaffirm their commitment to seek immediate United Nations Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine, as a non-nuclear-weapon State party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, if Ukraine should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used.
This was signed by Sergey Lavrov, Representative of The Russian Federation and Boris Yeltsin of the Russian Federation. Apparently, The Russian Federation and Sergey Lavrov do not keep promises. The United States of America does keep its promises.

Let's point out our differences...
No way those numbers match up with best scores and most qualified.

What is the explanation for world wide poverty amongst large swathes of humans and animals, when we have more than enough money to end all poverty? And funding/fueling wars instead of using that money to ensure life instead of taking it? Have yet at 33 to receive a logical explanation. Waiting impatiently for one. This administration has been no different than any other.

Bring back Jen this lady is not cut out for the job.

[stephenlock]

The correct term is REUNITE. That's exactly what Russia has done with the Donbass region.

[mikeglaspey]

When will it be appropriate for the president to finally go to the border for the 1st time in his 50 yr political career?

[duncanstewart]

OPEC has increased production in support of their European market customers. Lowering fuel cost driven inflation drivers.

Last I heard Puerto Rico was still sitting down there waiting on help. if y'all would get your nose out of everybody else's business like Russia's. You might could help your own people.

[armandocastellanosmusic]

It is not possible that the Western countries together with the USA want to cover with a finger the atrocities that Ukraine had committed against Donbas and Lugansk and now they are crying because Russia made them their own to defend and protect their people.
Stop crying over something you didn't want to protect because they were Russian towns and people.

[nickmcintyre]

So basically the US and NATO are still standing on the sidelines doing little. The US/NATO is like the whealthy buisness man who walks by a homeless person and gives them a dollar. It allows the business man to feel like he's helped but in actuality he's done nothing to solve the problem. Oh did I mention the buisness man owns a thousand empty houses... If we truley stand for freedom and inalienable rights we should fight to protect all human beings. We are all of earth and countries only seperate people. An Alien civilization won't see America and Europe, they'll see humans that are too stupid and indoctrinated with religious fairy tales to unite.
