Today I held meetings in Washington with senior Administration and Congress leaders, including insightful and productive discussions with Vice President Joe Biden, Secretary of State John Kerry, National Security Adviser Susan Rice and Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Senator Bob Corker. Australia and the United States are united in our commitment to deep cooperation to overcome the menace of terrorism at home and abroad. I chaired an inspiring discussion on contemporary foreign policy challenges and the significant contribution that women make in this domain at a Women's Foreign Policy Group roundtable.
