Our hearts are with all those who have lost loved ones, those injured, and the courageous rescue workers working tirelessly in the aftermath.

America stands with the Venezuelan people during this difficult time and at the direction of President Trump, the State Department is immediately deploying search and rescue teams, medical resources, and humanitarian assistance to Venezuela.

Met with His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain to reaffirm our enduring partnership and our commitment to Bahrain's security. We stand united on regional stability, a free and open Strait of Hormuz, and preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. Iran's attacks on Bahrain were unacceptable, and the United States stands with the people and government of Bahrain.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

📍 Final stop in Bahrain to represent our U.S. interests at the @GCCSG and to further strengthen long-standing U.S-Bahraini cooperation.

Met with UAE’s President @MohamedBinZayed in Abu Dhabi, where we discussed President Trump’s MOU with Iran, efforts to secure full and safe transit through the Strait of Hormuz, and regional stability. I thanked the UAE leadership for their unparalleled support, praised their courage and resilience in the face of Iran’s attacks, and reaffirmed our commitment to Emirati security and to our strong bilateral partnership.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

📍 In Abu Dhabi to discuss our shared priorities in the region.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

The situation in Cuba is devolving as the island’s corrupt, brutal and anti-American Communist regime continues to prioritize its own total control over the freedom, opportunity and basic wellbeing of the Cuban people.

The Cuban military-controlled conglomerate GAESA has persistently served as the main vector for regime elites to steal the island’s few resources, diverting them for repression, anti-American subversion and spying instead of schools, power plants, and basic necessities for the Cuban people. Today, I designated additional GAESA network entities associated with moving both its money and its physical assets, as well as entities responsible for exploiting Cuba’s mineral and metal reserves for ill-gotten profit.

Anyone providing services to these sanctioned actors is at risk of being sanctioned themselves. Foreign banks and other companies that provide services to these entities should freeze those activities immediately.

In 1776, a small group of patriots signed a document that defied an empire and changed the world. Salute to America on July 4th in Washington, DC will honor that heritage with world-class music, entertainment, and a record-breaking fireworks display. 🇺🇸

BREAKING: VP Vance announces major progress made by the United States and its negotiating team while finalizing a deal with Iran:

“Yesterday was a very, very good day. We made a lot of good progress. We did exactly what we wanted to do… the Iranians have agreed to invite IAEA inspectors back into their country. That is a major milestone for the American people. And the first step in permanently denuclearizing- permanently ending a nuclear weapons program in Iran.”

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Just spoke to Colombian President-Elect @ABDELAESPRIELLA to congratulate him on his electoral victory.

The Trump Administration looks forward to working closely with your incoming administration to advance regional security cooperation, end illegal immigration to the United States, and strengthen our economic ties.

Colombia's best days are ahead.

Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. Oil is flowing. Gas prices are falling. Markets are roaring.

A WIN for America and the world. 🇺🇸

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

America is lucky to have a leader with such incredible courage, remarkable strength, an unmatched sense of humor, and an unparalleled love of country.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President!
