Still has significant power but the power is no longer exclusive. It can only be exercised in cooperation with others. The transatlantic cooperation can be the bed rock if we lesson our learns and look ahead to the future of the role in the world. Our bonds, the transatlantic bonds, cannot rely only on our common pasts. Now its a moment to shape our common future.

And already the events of the first weeks of this year shows us how urgent our cooperation is to address the challenges we face. From the conflict between russia and ukraine to iraq and syria, from the terrible attacks in paris to the carnage spread boko haram in nigeria. We need this Transatlantic Partnership more than ever. We need cooperation in a world that is more infer connected, conflictual and. Polycentric than ever. Mega trends in human say it all. Global tourist is expect to near 2 billion by 2030. Migration

Around fraudulent fraudulent draws, not around the technology of the use of the credit card itself. I was going to add, we talked about security and confidentiality. We didnt mention the availability part. People talk about the triad that comes up a lot and this is a case of availability, people are dependent on a system in order to eat and this is not having that secured against an attack is a place where the security failed a group of very Vulnerable People and again, nothing to do with confidentiality but availability, we have to think about that, as well. One of the sayings in communities that are focused on Economic Justice or Community Development is that systems for the poor are poor systems. And hopefully well see that changing in the future. I saw a hand go up here. Yes, this gentleman in the green. My question is about the like the topography or the geography of how the Digital World actually appears.

Minimize the effect of these cuts on Indian Country. But we need your help to talk to congress. Its congress who has to take action on a realistic budget.
