“Abroad, American leadership is the one constant in an
uncertain world. It is America that has the capacity and the will to
mobilize the world against terrorists. It is America that has rallied the
world against Russian aggression, and in support of the Ukrainian peoples’
right to determine their own destiny. It is America – our scientists, our
doctors, our know-how –- that can help contain and cure the outbreak of
Ebola. It is America that helped remove and destroy Syria’s declared
chemical weapons so that they can’t pose a threat to the Syrian people or the
world again. And it is America that is helping Muslim communities around
the world not just in the fight against terrorism, but in the fight for
opportunity, and tolerance, and a more hopeful future.”
