John F. Kerry: “I apologize very much for being late. I expected to be on time, but I was meeting with some of the families, military…”

I will continue to oppose every bad policy, to question every baseless assertion, and to advocate for a wiser course that will make our country more secure.

I really appreciate the coordinated nonpartisan and bipartisan efforts that we have been making in this Committee

This is the most important part of this hearing, as far as I am concerned, so I apologize for not being able to listen to each of you.

We need to get back to building this bipartisanship in foreign policy. It is critical.
