Kazatchkine discussed the future of the U.S government's role and involvement in the Global Fund with Kaiser Family Foundation Vice President Jen Kates. The segment addressed how U.S. funding of the organization could change under President Obama and the new Congress; how the U.S. role is balanced with other donors; and the Global Fund's accomplishments and disappointments.
