That was CNN.
Lots of diplomatic doublespeak. However, I'm not sure it rises to the level of "defending important principles."
LOL Definitely when you read/see/hear transcripts from different leaders that are designed for their home audience.
Oftentimes, they seem to be saying opposite things. 555
Diplomacy at its best!!
