Kissinger / US CH Relations
-Nov 20, 2019-
"We cannot afford this policy of mutual reciprocal steps. And we have before us an obligation to develop some common conception of the evolution of the world. That will be a very difficult effort. And we will not necessarily;y agree at every stage, in fact there are many issues on we probably disagree. And we have to learn to manage these disagreements, but we also need to seek opportunities and recognize opportunities where common efforts will advance us towards a world where the transformation can occur on a peaceful and creative basis."

The Justice Department is examining whether lawmakers traded ahead of the market turmoil caused by the coronavirus pandemic based on confidential briefings they received, according to a person familiar with the matter.
As part of that inquiry, the FBI has reached out to Sen. Richard Burr (R., N.C.), said the person.
Mr. Burr, who sits on two committees that received detailed briefings on the growing epidemic, on Feb. 13 sold shares of companies worth as much as $1.7 million that he owns with his wife. That saved the couple at least $250,000 in losses based on what those stocks were worth at the close of trading on March 19, the Journal has reported.
The lawmaker has said he based those decisions on public information, including CNBC’s reports out of Asia at the time, and asked the Senate ethics panel to review his trading. An attorney for Mr. Burr, Alice Fisher, said Mr. Burr would cooperate in the Senate review “as well as any other appropriate inquiry.”
“Senator Burr welcomes a thorough review of the facts in this matter, which will establish that his actions were appropriate,” said Ms. Fisher, who ran the Justice Department’s criminal division in the George W. Bush Administration.
