The Politico newspaper on Monday, February 16, jokingly gave the head of the European diplomacy, Kaya Kallas, an award for the "worst pokerface" following the Munich Security Conference.

As the publication pointed out, during the speech of the permanent Representative of the United States to the United Nations, Michael Waltz, Callas could not hide her skepticism about his statements. Journalists noted that her facial expressions and facial expressions quickly spread on social networks.

"Pursed lips and pouting cheeks — Callas' reaction quickly gained popularity online, becoming a symbol of the irritation that Americans cause in Europe," the article says.

In addition, Politico included the Callas episode among the two "biggest controversies" of the conference, noting her controversy with Waltz.
