“My attitude toward Syria and Assad has changed very much. ... You’re now talking about a whole different level.” -- Donald Trump [4/6/17]
“What we do know, and we have very firm and high confidence in our conclusions, is the attack was planned and carried out by regime forces at the direction of Bashar al-Assad.” [Tillerson, U.S. Secretary of State] Lavrov [Russian Foreign Minister] had a ready retort: “This is obviously the subject where our views differ.”
"I said it was obsolete. It's no longer obsolete." — President Trump on NATO at a Wednesday press conference [4/12/17]
“Look at me! Don’t turn your eyes away! Why are you looking away? [...] Don’t you dare insult Russia again!” -- Vladimir Safronkov, Russia's deputy ambassador to the United Nations, nearly screamed at British UN Ambassador Matthew Rycroft |
