said.<\/p>\n<p>While Asia is a dynamic and emerging region of power, he underscored that the U.S. can\u2019t afford to turn away from the rest of the world.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized that security threats from Putin and Russia today are back at levels not seen since the Soviet Union era, and the importance of U.S. support to Europe in particular in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>In addressing the ongoing violence in a number of the 22 countries that make up the modern Middle East, Ambassador Burns noted few are better off following the \u201cArab Spring\u201d revolution in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>In talking about the need for increased U.S. humanitarian and military assistance in the Middle East, he reviewed power struggles in the four failed states of Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen, especially the situation in Syria, which\u00a0has left half its population homeless, with millions trapped inside an ongoing violent conflict or refugees in other countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the greatest humanitarian catastrophe, some people think since the Second World War,\u201d he said.\u00a0While this situation [the four failed states] is \u201cnot the whole story of the Middle East, analytically, you have to assume the \u00a0Middle East is going to remain unstable \u2026 for the next decade or two,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>On U.S.-China relations, he noted the fine balance between needing

U.S. and the world:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Global poverty alleviation has improved significantly, especially in China, India and Brazil, and with sub-Saharan Africa as some of the fastest growing economies in the world<\/li>\n<li>Global public health with advances in reduction or treatment\u00a0of malaria, polio and HIV, and putting private and philantormoney such as from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation behind these big\u00a0problems<\/li>\n<li>A virtuous link between university and marketplace, and the\u00a0great digital information, biotech and nano-tech revolution in the U.S. in the last 25-30 years, such as the relationships between Stanford and Silicon Valley or MIT and\u00a0biotech, where students have an idea and venture capitalists provide funding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In
