At meeting on EU, Russian PR complained that as no one had asked EU rep questions, she shouldn't have been given floor at meeting's end, that SC briefings not supposed to be interactive dialogues.
But in 2022 RF argued for briefer to speak at meeting's end who hadn't been asked questions.

No surprises here: the Kremlin approves of the US pausing military aid to Ukraine. When I ask Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov for his reaction, he says: “If it’s true, it’s a decision which could really push the Kyiv regime to a peace process.”

Israel’s decision to halt aid into Gaza is alarming.
International humanitarian law is clear: We must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid.
We can’t roll back the progress of the past 42 days. We need to get aid in and the hostages out.
The ceasefire must hold.
