Susan Rice
I was working with a number of African heads of state. And after their initial surprise, I think many of them just treated me as they would anybody else.

We know that weapons, heavy weapons continue to flow across the border from Russia into Ukraine. And we have now, in recent days, indications that Russians - Russian military units themselves have, on occasion, fired into Ukraine.

I am straight forward I am not manipulative I am not two-faced. And I think that that has served me well in all of my roles, particularly as a diplomat, because people knew if I said something, I meant it. If I said no, I meant no, and if I said we could make this work, we would make it work.

Iran's arms exports to the murderous Assad regime in Syria are of particular concern. As the Panel of Experts has concluded, Syria is now the central party to illicit Iranian arms transfers.
Susan Rice
If you want change, you have to make it. If we want progress we have to drive it.
Susan Rice
Well, I think by any expectation South Africa has come a tremendously long way. We've seen a society that many people thought couldn't withstand a peaceful transition to democracy without a great deal of violence, in fact, make that transition and do it in relative peace and security.
Susan Rice
Bashar al-Assad and those who still stand by him are now responsible for the deaths of more than 20,000 in Syria.
Susan Rice
I have to separate my personal concerns from my professional responsibilities.
Susan Rice
The larger picture here is that a North Korea with nuclear weapons adds to the larger proliferation risk.
Susan Rice
Iran's economy is now shrinking by 1 percent a year. Its oil production is down 40 percent.
Susan Rice
I have been to Libya and walked the streets of Benghazi myself.
Susan Rice
It's in our interest to continue with the Paris Agreement and to deal with climate change as the real threat it actually is.
Susan Rice
Well, Nigeria has played a constructive role in peacekeeping in various parts of West Africa. But unless and until Nigeria itself is democratic and respects human rights, it too may well be a source of much greater instability as political repression limits the ability of the people of Nigeria to achieve their full potential.
