From State Dept. Room Asking
Tillerson About Russia, China, Ukraine
NBC's Andrea Mitchell was not allowed to ask questions during a photo-op with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and the Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin before a meeting on the seventh floor of the State Department. She asked several questions anyway and was asked to leave the room.
She asked Tillerson about threats from China and Russia's relationship with Ukraine and was met with silence.
To Klimkin she asked: "Are you sure that the Trump administration will be strong against Vladimir Putin? Can you assure us that Russia will not be able to move forward in Ukraine?"
