Any satellite launch that uses ballistic missile technology would be a violation of multiple Security Council resolutions that require North Korea to suspend all activities related to its ballistic missile program.

Tonight, great response, but what if they (Syrian military) do it again? What if they use barrel bombs? What are we going to do for Syrian refugees who we say can’t come to the U.S., but we’re willing to drop bombs on their country? I hope the Trump administration is thinking this through.

A lot of us do wish there were times we were more militarily engaged in Syria.

In a region that is on fire, now with the addition of ISIS as a huge threat to the region, there are a lot of things that could happen if the U.S. gets more militarily involved.

We're frankly more concerned about the quality of the deal than we are about the clock, though we also know that difficult decisions won't get any easier with time.

We're frankly more concerned about the quality of the deal than we are about the clock, though we also know that difficult decisions won't get any easier with time, that is why we are continuing to negotiate.

We have seen progress, but still believe that further improvements ...could ensure these proceedings meet domestic and international obligations.

I think her office can address the issues about security. I think they're probably most appropriate to do so. So I can't really speak to those kinds of claims.

Certainly he emphasized that we are committed to deepening our security partnership with Pakistan.

We have seen that as one of their tactics and that is why it is so important to move forward with the election, because we believe it’s important.

There has been a sharp escalation in the number of reported casualties, we do believe the election is a factor.

I don't think I actually winked or nudged, i said I can't comment on those reports one way or the other. I can't confirm them one way or the other. I don't actually know that their Internet was out, and it's not for me to speak to. I was broadly speaking about what the president has said but in no way was trying to link it to yesterday's activity.

We aren't going to discuss ... publicly, operational details about the possible response options or comment on those kind of reports in anyway except to say that as we implement our responses, some will be seen, some may not be seen.

Obviously, we take very seriously any threats to U.S. citizens, to U.S. companies, regardless of what that threat looks like.
