What I would say about me is: What you see is what I get.

The United States share of the African market it's very small, it's only about 8 percent.

I think it's very, very important that in foreign policy and national security decision making, as in any other realm, that there be a range of diversity that reflects the full complexity of America. We should draw on those experiences to inform our decision making.

The problem is, Hamas is using force to try to extort progress on its political objectives.

I think one of the real issues that we're faced with is how we consume news, how the media is perceived, how fake news is gaining a degree of currency without criticism that is dangerous, in my judgement.

South Africa's increasingly, for example, the largest foreign investor in various other parts of Africa.

I'm sort of in this rhythm where we want to make the most of the time we have, but when it's done it will be time for it to be done.
