The speech comes after dozens of people were reported killed and hundreds injured earlier today in bombings at an airport and transit station in and near Brussels.
"These terrorists seek to undermine the democratic values that are the foundation of our allegiance and our way of life, but they will never succeed," Clinton said today in a statement. "Today's attacks will only strengthen our resolve to stand together as allies and defeat terrorism and radical jihadism around the world."
