Yesterday, Des Moines was honored to host NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte and Des Moines’ very own Ambassador Matthew Whitaker, U.S. Permanent Representative to NATO. It presented a phenomenal opportunity to hear how important it is to preserve and support our global alliances and the unique role Iowa plays in supporting the strength and security of our allies worldwide.

Thanks to the Chicago Council on Global Affairs for bringing this conversation to the City of Des Moines.
