Statement by the North Atlantic Council on Russia's attack on Ukraine

#NATO | #Ukraine 🇺🇦 | #StopRussianAggression

Ukraine is entitled to its sovereignty, no matter who its neighbors happen to be. In the modern era, great countries accept that, and so must Vladimir Putin.

It was the honor of my life to serve the American people by defending their interests and values around the world. I will never forget walking into the State Department 25 years ago today. Passing by the portraits of my predecessors, I could feel the walls shake just a little

I treasured my friendship with Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the many messages we exchanged as “Arch” and “Maddy.” He was a man of wit and wisdom, who taught us that reconciliation is a more reliable remedy than revenge and that there is never a wrong time to speak up for freedom.

10 years ago today, the world lost an incomparable leader. Václav Havel devoted his life not only to pursuing democracy, but to using democracy to create a more just, humane and tolerant world. The best way for us to honor his memory is to carry on with this indispensable work.

It started with a serpent. Since donning a snake pin to send a message to Saddam Hussein, I have worn hundreds of pins to communicate signals to foreign leaders.I’m excited to share my collection of pins with you through the new #ReadMyPins online exhibit. readmypins.state.gov
