Remarks by Ambassador Susan E. Rice, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, at the Annual Leaders Recognition Reception for the Conference of Presidents of American Jewish Organizations

Ambassador Susan Rice addressed the Conference of Presidents of Jewish Organizations last week and reiterated the President's and the administration's support of a strong US-Israel relationship.

Good evening, everyone. I’m delighted to be here and to see so many friends and colleagues.

Harold Tanner, thank you so much for that warm introduction. Malcolm Hoenlein, Richard Stone and Harold Tanner, and the event co-chairs, thank you for your leadership. It’s great to be back at the Conference of Presidents. Please know that we will continue to work closely with our valued partners in this room and beyond.
