Pentagon Press Sec John Kirby - Nominated for OSCARS 2024

Nominated for best scripting and best acting. Well done John you really deserve an Oscar.

Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby got emotional while speaking about the "depravity" of the atrocities that Russian forces are committing during the ongoing war in Ukraine.
"It's hard to look at what [Russian President Vladimir Putin is] doing in Ukraine — what his forces are doing in Ukraine — and think that any ethical, moral, individual could justify that," Kirby said during a briefing after a reporter asked if he thought Putin is a rational actor.
Kirby then chokes up and pauses for a few moments, before softly apologizing.
