Hillary Clinton: 'The World Needs More Chris Stevenses' (VIDEO)
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issued a statement condemning violence in Benghazi Tuesday that killed J. Christopher Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya, who spent part of his childhood in Davis.
"I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago," she said in a statement. "He spoke eloquently about his passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This assignment was only the latest in his more than two decades of dedication to advancing closer ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Morocco."Â
