.Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield on the situation in Sudan: The world has largely remained silent and that must change and it has to change. The international community must give more, it must do more and it has to care more.

Overnight, Russia launched what some have termed one of the worst attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure since the start of Russia's invasion.

Russia must be held accountable for its actions.

We welcome António Guterres' selection of Julie Bishop as the UN Special Envoy on Myanmar, a pivotal decision amid the crisis.

There is no separating “what happens in cyberspace” from “what happens in the real world.”

Cyber security is international security. All UN Member States must rein in ransomware and other cyber attackers.

Met today with Janti Soeripto Soeripto to discuss the grave humanitarian crises in Gaza and Sudan.

In both conflicts, humanitarian aid must flow freely and humanitarian workers must be protected.

Right now, we are not seeing that. That needs to change. Immediately.

Today, one in five children is living in or fleeing from conflict.

Lives are being cut short – in Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, and other conflict-zones – before they even truly begin.

We must do more to address the needs of children in armed conflict.

My thoughts are with the people of Taiwan and all those in the region affected by this morning's devastating earthquake. The United States stands ready to provide any necessary assistance.

The World Food Programme warned that, unless new funds come in, it will be forced to cut off food assistance to hundreds of thousands of Sudanese refugees in Chad.

This is unacceptable. The United States is the largest single donor nation to this effort. Now other countries need to step up.

My heart breaks for World Central Kitchen and the entire humanitarian community, which has endured so much pain and loss throughout this conflict.

Humanitarian workers must be protected as they carry out their life-saving work – in Gaza and in every conflict. Full stop.

Today, I joined CSIS to discuss the importance of the U.S.-Pacific relationship.

The U.S. shares a unique, longstanding history with the Pacific Islands.

We have robust people-to-people ties.

And our economic prosperity and national security are inextricably linked.
