In this age of ever-increasing dependence on free and open access to information, U.S. strength in the information space has never been more necessary for the preservation of peace and the advancement of human welfare.

Trust and strength are both indispensable to preserving the peace and prosperity we have enjoyed since the end of the Cold War.
