Remarks at U.S. Africa Command conference in Germany

Two days ago, I delivered a talk at a conference for the U.S. Africa Command (U.S. AFRICOM) in Garmisch, Germany, on "The Evolution of African Militaries." The conference drew about 100 people, including African researchers, U.S. Embassy staff members, and U.S. AFRICOM personnel. My talk centered on transnational issues that impact African stability and security forces. A transcript is available here. UPDATE (2/11): AFRICOM has added the transcript to its site here.
