I just have to say, finally, Mr. Chair, through you to the employees, that we have here a picture that's not a pretty one of an institute that's to be promoting democracy and human rights. A horrible irony here is that we've seen, seemingly, a bullied staff and funds being distributed in a way that doesn't look helpful, when they should be used for working on human rights in places like Haiti, the Congo, and Afghanistan.
At least from what we've heard today, and from what I've read in terms of the brief, it seems that since we've had Mr. Braun at the helm, there's been interference, no direction, and clearly turning a venerable institution into one that is under question--and not because of the people who work for it.
Thank you.
