Remarks on Hungary

"As friends of Hungary, we expressed our concerns and particularly called for a real commitment to the independence of the judiciary, a free press, and governmental transparency."

Remarks on the Muslim Brotherhood

"In any of those contacts, prior or future, we will continue to emphasize the importance of and support for democratic principles -- and especially a commitment to nonviolence, respect for minority rights and the full inclusion of women in any democracy. You cannot leave out half the population and claim that you are committed to democracy."
