the NATO family of allies and partners

02:59.680 --> 03:02.860
all face like NATO

03:03.240 --> 03:06.150
Chicago brings together many cultures .

03:07.140 --> 03:10.030
It is built upon diversity and

03:10.030 --> 03:13.480
determination in Chicago ,

03:13.800 --> 03:17.610
NATO will deliver an alliance which is

03:17.620 --> 03:20.600
committed to transatlantic solidarity

03:20.600 --> 03:24.380
and cooperation capable of dealing with

03:24.380 --> 03:26.560
the security challenges of the future

03:27.440 --> 03:30.440
And connected with our partner nations

03:30.450 --> 03:32.339
and the rest of the international

03:32.339 --> 03:35.340

province in eastern Afghanistan and we

05:25.618 --> 05:27.900
important to the security of all of us .

05:27.910 --> 05:30.260
I have been to Ghazni province in

05:30.260 --> 05:32.720
Afghanistan in our Illinois National

05:32.720 --> 05:34.990
Guard has had a partnership for peace

05:35.000 --> 05:38.350
with the Polish military since 1995 .

05:38.540 --> 05:40.651
And we have worked with the coalition

05:40.651 --> 05:42.651
forces in Afghanistan . From at the

05:42.651 --> 05:45.570
very beginning , we also worked in Iraq

05:45.570 --> 05:47.670
with uh many of the other coalition

05:47.670 --> 05:50.440
forces and uh we thank them for their

05:50.450 --> 05:52.810
service . We honor those who lost their

05:52.810 --> 05:55.040
lives and mourn their loss . And we

05:55.040 --> 05:58.250
also mourn the loss of the young people

05:58.250 --> 06:00.990
who were in that uh skiing trip . And

06:00.990 --> 06:04.670

Illinois , in the United States grieve

06:13.580 --> 06:15.636
with those who have lost their loved

06:15.636 --> 06:17.900
ones today . I think it is also

06:17.900 --> 06:20.140
important that our state of Illinois ,

06:20.140 --> 06:22.196
a large state , fifth largest in the

06:22.196 --> 06:25.990
United States uh grew up in uh Illinois .

My whole life was born in Chicago . I

06:28.580 --> 06:30.636
have a house in Chicago , but I also

06:30.636 --> 06:32.524
live in the governor's mansion in

06:32.524 --> 06:34.358
Springfield , Illinois where the

06:34.358 --> 06:36.469
secretary General's son lives and his

06:36.469 --> 06:38.358
daughter in law and grandchildren

06:38.358 --> 06:40.524
invited the Secretary General to sleep

06:40.524 --> 06:42.490
in the Governor's mansion in the

06:42.500 --> 06:45.470
Lincoln bed located there . Abraham

06:45.470 --> 06:47.570
Lincoln bought that bed and lots of

06:47.570 --> 06:50.490
people have come through our city of

06:50.490 --> 06:52.601
Springfield , our state capital . And

06:52.601 --> 06:56.220
we have a very warm hospitality to all

06:56.220 --> 06:58.331
who visit and we want to express that

06:58.331 --> 07:00.950
hospitality to all our friends in NATO .

07:00.960 --> 07:03.016
When they come in the month of May ,

07:03.016 --> 07:05.182
Illinois has many opportunities in the

07:05.182 --> 07:07.680
city of Chicago and we have a train , a

07:07.680 --> 07:09.680
fast train to Springfield and other

07:09.680 --> 07:11.791
places . If you like to drive a car ,

07:11.791 --> 07:14.050
you can drive down on route 66 the

07:14.050 --> 07:16.450
mother road where literally thousands

07:16.450 --> 07:18.561
and thousands of people have traveled

07:18.561 --> 07:20.672
that road from Chicago to Springfield

07:20.672 --> 07:22.783
down to ST louis . And if you want to

07:22.783 --> 07:25.117
go to Los Angeles , you can do that too .

07:25.117 --> 07:27.830

07:27.830 --> 07:30.750
our state with warm hearts . We believe

07:30.750 --> 07:33.460
in diversity , diversity unites us .

07:33.470 --> 07:35.660

07:56.229 --> 07:58.284
invitation to stay at the Governor's

07:58.284 --> 08:00.229
mansion was only for the secretary

11:35.419 --> 11:37.530
inspiring meetings with MS Harris and

11:37.530 --> 11:39.752
uh , she challenged us to think big and

11:39.752 --> 11:41.919
think about the unique elements of our

11:41.919 --> 11:43.808
city . And uh , and I believe our

11:43.808 --> 11:43.640
marketing team and my team back in

11:43.640 --> 11:45.696
Chicago as well as the teams here in

11:45.696 --> 11:48.460
brussels did a great job . You're gonna

11:48.460 --> 11:50.627
get a chance to walk the exhibit . But

11:50.627 --> 11:52.793
if you've not been over to the side of

11:52.793 --> 11:54.516
the building yet , Our city is

11:54.516 --> 11:56.516
celebrating its 175th birthday this

11:56.516 --> 11:58.682
month and there's a timeline that goes

11:58.682 --> 12:00.890
back to the 175 years and you'll be

12:00.890 --> 12:03.610
able to get a pictorial here and then

12:03.620 --> 12:06.480
when the , when the delegates arrive in

12:06.490 --> 12:08.657
in May , they're gonna get a chance to

12:08.657 --> 12:10.823
experience . Hopefully all the Chicago

12:10.823 --> 12:12.934
has to offer . And those sections are

12:12.934 --> 12:15.550
along here capped off by a video wall

12:15.550 --> 12:17.661
and display at the end , that sort of

12:17.661 --> 12:19.661
chronicles everything we have so we

12:19.661 --> 12:21.661
realize that not all of you will be

12:21.661 --> 12:24.120
able to make the trip in May . However ,
