State Department Briefing, Heather Nauert and Russian Parity
State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert faced a difficult briefing regarding the U.S. search of Russian diplomatic properties in San Francisco. Nauert argued the searches were necessary to achieve "parity" after Russia expelled U.S. diplomats, but she struggled to answer questions about the legality of searching sovereign property. The briefing became contentious when Nauert accused journalists of "working for RT" for asking critical questions.
