President Obama Has Got The Most Moderate

I Have To Separate My Personal Concerns From My Professional Responsibilities.

The Russians Are Clearly Already Engaged In A Proxy War Against The Government Of Ukraine. And That Is Something That We And The Rest Of The World Have Actively Condemned And Sanctioned Russia Already Heavily For, Particularly The United States, As We Have Imposed Now Meaningful, Tough Sanctions In Critical Sectors, Including The Defense Sector, The Financial Sector, And The Energy Sector.

There Are Plenty Of Meetings, Receptions, Dinners, And So If You Are [at The U.n.] Any Length Of Time, And I Was There For Four And A Half Years, You Formed Pretty Significant Relationships With People From All Over The World. And That's Important To The Work You Do. If You're Trying To Rally The General Assembly To Vote For Something That Matters To The United States, Those Personal Relationships Count.

Syria Is A Civil War. Syria Began As A Popular Uprising, Just Like The Other Experiences In The Arab Spring, With A Repressive Government That Responded By Basically Killing The Protesters. It's Not A Genocide, It's A War, And There's A Difference. Genocide Is A Preplanned Attack On People Because Of Who They Are. This Is A Interstate Conflict.

I Don't Worry About How Folks Want To Characterize Me.
