Ambassador Susan E. Rice was the national webcast speaker for our eleventh annual CHINA Town Hall, held on October 24, 2017. In addition to her foreign policy experience as national security advisor (2013-2017) and U.S. permanent representative to the UN (2009-2013), Ambassador Rice also served as U.S. assistant secretary of state for African Affairs and senior director for African Affairs at the National Security Council. Her decades of public service and critical role in developing and executing the Obama administration's policies towards China made her perspective on the relationship especially relevant at an uncertain time in the bilateral relationship.
