He asked Brink what the US should do to “better counter Russian attempts to justify” a military sting operation in Ukraine.
"I agree with you.
We have been outmatched and outplayed.
We must put in as much effort as possible.
It's a challenge," Brink replied.
Earlier, the press service of the White House National Security Council reported that the United States was imposing sanctions on Russian TV channels - First, Rossiya-1 and NTV.
It is clarified that companies from the United States will no longer be able to cooperate with TV channels.
