Hillary Clinton said on Wednesday the U.S. is witnessing an “all-out attack on core values of democracy” under President Trump's administration.

Speaking to a crowd at the annual Vital Voice Global Leadership Awards, which honors women leaders in a variety of fields, Clinton said there is a “retreat from the commitment to embrace women’s advancement as an objective of U.S. foreign policy."

"I don’t think it's a coincidence that at the same time, we are witnessing an all-out attack on core values of democracy: free speech and the rule of law," she said at the event in Washington, according to Fox News . "A war on truth, facts and reason. So, women’s voices have always been vital, but never more so than right now."

Clinton didn’t specifically mention the Trump administration in her Wednesday night speech, but her remarks on the current state of American affairs were a clear attack on her former 2016 presidential election opponent.

"I think it's very unfortunate to contemplate but more can happen that would put our rights at risk, our freedom at risk, our values, our fundamental views about what it means to be Americans," she warned attendees.
