Secretary Blinken's Press Availability at the Meeting of NATO Foreign Ministers

The U.S. is imposing blocking sanctions on two Russian state-owned enterprises. We will keep raising the cost for President Putin’s unconscionable war and atrocities against Ukraine.

The U.S. welcomes Saudi Arabia & the UAE’s pledge of $2 billion in economic support for the Central Bank of Yemen. We also welcome Saudi Arabia’s pledge for development and for the humanitarian response plan for Yemenis.

We strongly condemn the terrorist attack that occurred in Israel. We are thinking of the victims of today’s attack and the families of those killed. May the memories of those who passed be a blessing.
