The incoming administration will need to “step up to the plate” in addressing threats posed by U.S. adversaries, regardless of who wins the presidential election, according to Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio).

Turner, chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, told the Atlantic Council at an event on Oct. 30 that the next president must ensure that U.S. adversaries “see a United States that is going to step up and say, ‘We’re going to not only de-escalate but resolve these conflicts in favor of the United States and our allies.’”
