United Nations (United States) (AFP) - US Ambassador Nikki Haley on Tuesday said the United States is ready to improve ties with Russia but will not compromise on its support for NATO and the European Union.

Haley told a Security Council debate on conflicts in Europe that "Russia's attempts to destabilize Ukraine" were among the most serious challenges facing the continent.

"The United States thinks it's possible to have a better relationship with Russia - after all, we confront many of the same threats," Haley said. "But greater cooperation with Russia cannot come at the expense of the security of our European friends and allies."

The remarks came as European governments are seeking reassurance after US President Donald Trump applauded Britain's decision to leave the European Union, criticized NATO members over burden-sharing and praised Russian President Vladimir Putin.

1. So who do we believe?

Do we believe the so called President of the United States?


Or do we believe the Secretary of Defense, The Vice President, or the United States Ambassador to the United Nations?

Trump's officials seem to always contradict him in public. And because Trump isn't going on a twitter rant I assume he doesn't mind. Which means I think he is changing is opinions every day and doesn't really have a policy on this matter.
