Pompeo Defends Journalist's Removal From Pool
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has defended the State Department's removal of a National Public Radio (NPR) reporter from his traveling press pool. The decision came after another NPR reporter asked him pointed questions about Ukraine and a former U.S. ambassador's removal. Pompeo spoke in an interview with RFE/RL's Aigerim Toleukhan on February 2 in Kazakhstan's capital, Nur-Sultan.
