Ambassador Rae, it's good to see you back. It's always a pleasure to have you here at our committee.
I'm going to ask you more about what happened in Ukraine.
Can you walk us through the horrible day when Russia illegally launched an invasion into Ukraine? Perhaps, what were you doing at the time? Who did you talk to? What did your multilateral engagement look like? What were your counterparts thinking at the time?
If you could enlighten us, that would be great.
