My fellow leaders, Let me begin by saying it is a great honor to have this unprecedented gathering of world leaders in the United States.We come together not at a remarkable moment on the calendar,but at a dawn of a new era in human affairs,when globalization,revolution and information technology have brought us together than ever before. To an extent unimaginable just a few years ago,we reach across geographical and cultural divides.We know what is going on in each other's countries.We share experiences,triumphs,tragedies,aspirations.
