Today, its not just democracy integrity andlection but in the 2020 election. So we have a time horizon of 14 months. I think i can put it very well, what is the scenario, its sort of a butterfly balance on steroids. If we have a postelection and if we have a contested result, and even just a couple of counties, and there is a been a Disinformation Campaign that is exposed that may have skewed the results. But i worry about is i dont know how we quite survived the second election here in this country. A second president ial election that comes into serious question.

An agreement that provides for unfettered access the same way you heard from our distinct panel implemented in a country that was vanquished and more, of course it will humiliate the radio nation. A hard time keeping up a deal like that in the next president will be in a difficult position. So the bottom line that i want to emphasize here is it is just not enough to get a good deal.

Representative smith is the top democrat on the House Armed Services committee and the guest speaker at this hourlong event hosted by the u. S. Institute of peace in washington, dc. Good morning, im jim marshall their president of the United States institute of peace, and i want to welcome our guests. Let me briefly tell you what the United States institute of peace does.
