Hillary Clinton to speak at Stanford in wake of Belgium attacks

Presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will make an appearance Wednesday morning at Stanford University to deliver a speech on counterterrorism in the wake of deadly bombings in Belgium earlier today.

Clinton is scheduled to give her speech at 11:15 a.m. at the Bechtel Conference Center at Encina Hall, located at 616 Serra Mall, according to her campaign.

In her address, Clinton will urge listeners to stand in solidarity with Europe in order to defeat the Islamic State group, according to her campaign. The speech comes after dozens of people were reported killed or injured earlier today in bombings at an airport and transit station in and near Brussels.

Clinton said today in a statement:

“These terrorists seek to undermine the democratic values that are the foundation of our allegiance and our way of life, but they will never succeed. … Today’s attacks will only strengthen our resolve to stand together as allies and defeat terrorism and radical jihadism around the world.”
