[Secretary Clinton:] We
fundamentally believe that
00:00:03.667,00:00:06.567
increasing trade
and growing prosperity
00:00:06.567,00:00:08.700
will benefit people everywhere.
00:00:08.700,00:00:11.133
We call this economic
statecraft.
00:00:11.133,00:00:13.533
We can make it possible for more
people
00:00:13.533,00:00:17.167
to work, trade, invest, create
and prosper.
00:00:17.167,00:00:21.100
That's why more than 1,000
economic officers
00:00:21.100,00:00:24.867
on six continents are working with
chambers of commerce,
00:00:24.867,00:00:28.133
local businesses, and local and
national governments
00:00:28.133,00:00:31.167
to open markets and find new
customers.
00:00:31.167,00:00:34.300
We're forming new partnerships
with companies,
00:00:34.300,00:00:38.133
universities, NGOs and
philanthropies to put
00:00:38.133,00:00:42.733
private-sector ingenuity to work
solving some of our most
00:00:42.733,00:00:47.400
difficult global challenges and
driving sustainable development.
00:00:47.400,00:00:50.767
We have the chance to work
together,
00:00:50.767,00:00:54.267
to advance prosperity, pursue
innovation,
00:00:54.267,00:00:57.567
and improve the lives of others
worldwide.
00:00:57.567,00:00:59.867
The United States is fully
committed.
00:00:59.867,00:01:02.633
We are ready to engage, and to
lead.
00:01:02.633,00:01:06.800
On behalf of our citizens, our
neighbors and partners,
00:01:06.800,00:01:10.733
and the future generations whose
lives will be shaped
00:01:10.733,00:01:14.733
by the work we do today,
together.
