At a summit on women's rights at the Clinton Center in Little Rock, Clinton weighs in on US-Iran relations, Russia's barbarity and Arkansas abortion rights.


 

Hillary Clinton was asked by interviewer Christiane Amanpour about a past statement she made that women’s rights were "unfinished business."

"We have come a long way since I made that statement, back in 1995, on so many fronts," Clinton responded. "But we are also in a period of time where there is a lot of pushback and much of the progress that has been, I think, taken for granted by too many people is under attack."

"Literally under attack, in places like Iran or Afghanistan or Ukraine, where rape is a tactic of war, or under attack by political and cultural forces in a country like our own, when it comes to women's health care and bodily autonomy."

During a United Nations speech in 1995, Hillary Clinton said, “human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights.” Ahead of the Clinton Foundation’s Women’s Voices Summit in Little Rock, Arkansas, Hillary Clinton sat down with MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez to discuss why that message resonates today and the ongoing fight for women in America and across the globe.

"I think putting together a polished show can be very important."
