I want to say to all of you that I am so honored to be here to speak before this Committee.

A North Korean missile with a nuclear payload capable of striking the United States Homeland is no longer a distant hypothetical--it is an imminent danger.

I am convinced the only successful path to preserving the rules-based order in the Indo-Pacific--and the peace and prosperity it has generated--is to renew America's leadership in the region in full.
