Gen. Mark Milley said he spoke with his counterparts in up to 60 countries after the 2020 election.
Milley told the January 6 committee there was "great concern" overseas on the stability of the US.

Gen. Mark Milley said he had calls with counterparts in up to 60 countries during the months after the 2020 election to assure them the US was stable, according to testimony released by the January 6 committee.
Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has served as the top military adviser to the president since 2019. The House Select committee investigating the Capitol riot released his testimony, taken on November 17, 2021, on Sunday among a trove of documents.
Milley told the committee his calls with White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo increased after the election. He said he used the calls to promote a peaceful transfer of power and to report to them what he was seeing overseas, as then-President Donald Trump refused to concede the election and spread false claims about widespread fraud.
