A frank and productive exchange of views with my counterpart on key issues like expanding the global supply of candy and toys and tightening sanctions against chores.

Thanks to @jaketapper for being a staunch advocate for Evan’s release, sending messages on social media daily all this year to make sure Evan’s cause was always being talked about. It matters and it worked. #IStandWithEvan
It’s very hard to sum up all that @paulwsj has done for Evan. He’s one of the real heroes behind the scenes. But what he’s done for the rest of us is allow us to confidently carry on with our jobs knowing that someone has our back, especially if things go wrong. Thank you
