Missile strike on Odesa port: Brink calls for bringing Russia to justice
U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink has called today's Russian missile strike on the Odesa port, less than 24 hours after signing an agreement to allow shipments of agricultural exports, unacceptable and said that Russia must be held to account.
Brink wrote this on her Twitter account.
"Outrageous. Russia strikes the port city of Odesa less than 24 hours after signing an agreement to allow shipments of agricultural exports. The Kremlin continues to weaponize food. Russia must be held to account," the ambassador wrote.
