Good evening from new york, im chris hayes. The covid pandemic, im sad to say, is the worst its ever been in this country and its getting worse by the day.

Sitting together and brainstorming about what it is they can learn from each other. Im terribly sorry. Finishing up, and again, what ive seen from central and eastern democracy promotion often times it is not just about what those countries have done at home but what they have done, that didnt work and maybe their counterparts should not repeat.
