The notion that -- which some people are trying to suggest, that by asking for the identity of an American person, that is the same as leaking it, is completely false. There's no equivalence between so-called unmasking and leaking.
Susan Rice
It may not be what you would've chosen, but we all have a responsibility to be active citizens and shape our system and our future.
Susan Rice
Peace, prosperity, and democracy cannot endure if imposed from the outside. We should cease to make false distinctions between peacekeeping and prevention they are in fact inextricably linked.
Susan Rice
If you want change, you have to make it. If we want progress we have to drive it.
