She said The U.S. and China continue to disagree on issues such as human rights but is working with the country in a "cooperative way" on climate change."
On Russian-U.S. relations, she said the two countries are working together along with the Security Council to bring peace, prosperity and security to the world.
Regarding Iran's decision to restrict international inspections of its nuclear facilities, Thomas-Greenfield said the U.S. is looking for opportunities to encourage the Iranians to go back to compliance, and if they make that decision, we are prepared to also rejoin the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA..
