MR. SULLIVAN: Well, thank you, Joy. I will not tell you that story tonight. I need, like, two or three drinks before I tell it. So -- (laughter) --
And now I'm the one standing between you and the refreshments, so I will not try to speak for too long.
But I really did want to come over from the White House, on behalf of the President, to say: Thank you all for being here. It's really great to be surrounded by so many longtime supporters of the U.S.-Africa partnership, from ministers to ambassadors, to colleagues from Congress who have come through over the course of the day, the private sector, and of course, civil society.
