U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will deliver what’s being called a “major foreign policy address” in downtown Los Angeles on Tuesday.
Kerry, fresh off his trip to a G7 conference with other leading foreign ministers in Japan, will appear before the Pacific Council on International Policy to discuss the national security opportunities of the Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, the PCIP announced today.
“Those of us in Los Angeles and on the West Coast are key brokers of the U.S. relationships in the world, and we believe deeply in the importance of U.S. global engagement,” said Council President and CEO Jerrold D. Green. “We are honored to host Secretary Kerry for this special event to address one of the top issues on the current global agenda.”
Kerry will speak at 10 a.m. Tuesday at the Omni Hotel, 251 S. Olive St. His address will be streamed live at www.pacificcouncil.org/live and at www.state.gov.
Los Angeles leaders in finance, law, entertainment, non-profit and academia will attend the event.
