Dear John,

To ensure that the many pivotal events of the coming year turn in the right direction, it is imperative that the political leaders and citizens of all democracies awaken to both the threats and the opportunities, and set aside their internal disputes in pursuit of a far greater and more consequential shared interest in peace, freedom, and prosperity around the world.
