U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen highlighted “considerable progress” made in curbing inflation during an interview on Monday. Yellen emphasized the simultaneous achievement of inflation control and economic strength, framing it as good news for Americans.
Reflecting on the Biden administration’s economic strategies, Yellen said: “our job is to explain to Americans what President Biden has done to improve the economy.”
“It’s a critical priority for the president and critical to the national security of our country,” Yellen said of support for Ukraine and Israel.
She warned of the broader implications of the conflict in Ukraine.
“If Putin were to win this brutal war… next, we might see him attacking a NATO ally of ours.”
