I'm sorry, but Pompeo is the Secretary of State, not the EAS Asst Secy. The US has global interests & should support universal values. Thousands of people have been beaten and arrested in neighboring Belarus. To not say a word is tone death & bad policy. Not one damn word.

And please don't forget the title of the speech. Belarus is in Europe. Ukraine is in Europe. Hungary is in Europe. Russia is in Europe. To give a speech about Freedom there & barely mention European autocrats is wrong. & Belarusians are noticing our silence.
