rothstein: good afternoon. thank you for letting me speak today. colleagues, am very deeply troubled by what brings us here today, and the things we have to discuss about these instances. among my duties at the state department, i am responsible for providing executive leadership for the global peace operations initiative. i will take a few minutes to talk about sexual exportation -- about preventing sexual exploitation and abuse. gpoi is our flagship security assistance program. it focuses on building capacity for other countries to deploy other missions. for the most part, it is a training and equipping kind of a mission, although we also focus on building self-sufficiency, to do training for themselves. an important to note, one of our key program objectives is to promote the role of women and to promote better gender integration into their operations. gpoi has been very successful at helping other countries step up to their responsibilities for security. it also allows us to focus our military and other priorities besides peacekeeping. to date,
