72nd Secretary of State serving under the leadership of @POTUS Trump.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

Don't act like I never told ya.

[Department of State @StateDept]

We’re here to win for America. 🇺🇸

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Ambassador Tom Barrack has been and remains a central interlocutor on Syria, and key trusted hand on Iraq.

He will continue to play a vital role, not only as our Ambassador to the Republic of Türkiye, but also as we advance the President's strategic cooperation with the government in Syria and begin our work with the new government in Iraq.

He is an indispensable member of the President's team, carries my full confidence, and operates with the full backing of the State Department. The American people are well served by his continued willingness to lead this work.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Ambassador Tom Barrak has played an invaluable role as our Special Envoy to Syria.

While that title is expiring, he will continue to play a leading role for the Trump Administration in both Syria and Iraq, where his expertise, relationships, and understanding of the America First agenda will continue to deliver wins on behalf of our great country.

Met with Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister @MIshaqDar50 and thanked him for the role Pakistan continues to play in advancing peace in the Middle East.

Primeiro Comando da Capital and Comando Vermelho are two of the most violent criminal organizations in Brazil. Their reach extends throughout our region and into our country. 

Today, I designated these organizations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists. 

The Trump Administration will continue using every available tool to protect our national security interests and deny funding and resources to narco-terrorists.

Deeply moved by my visit to Mother House. Mother Teresa's legacy of faith, compassion, and service inspires us all.

Jeanette and I were honored to visit the Taj Mahal in Agra, India alongside @USAmbIndia.

The Taj Mahal’s ancient architecture stands as a beautiful testament to Indian civilization and heritage.

Today in Yerevan, Armenian Foreign Minister @AraratMirzoyan and I announced a bilateral framework agreement on the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) and signed a Strategic Partnership Charter and MOU on Critical Minerals, furthering the goals established during @POTUS’s historic peace summit between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We also discussed the peace process and Armenia’s upcoming elections.

Under President Trump, we have ushered in a new golden age for U.S.-Japan relations that upholds a free and open Indo-Pacific and brings peace and prosperity to the region. I met with Japanese Foreign Minister @Moteging today to talk about keeping the momentum as we work together bilaterally and through the Quad.

It was great to meet with Australian Foreign Minister @SenatorWong on the margins of the Quad Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in New Delhi today.

We're making sure our alliance and partnership benefits Americans and Australians alike, and our collaboration through the Quad is a force for a more stable, secure, prosperous world.

America was built, defended, and preserved by those willing to give everything for it.

On Memorial Day, we honor the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation and our freedom. We will never forget them.

[Department of State @StateDept]

On Memorial Day, we honor every American warrior who left behind the blessings of home and family to answer our Nation’s greatest calling.

The U.S. stands firmly with the legitimate Government of Lebanon as it works to restore its authority and build a better future for all its people. Hizballah's threats of violence and overthrow will not be allowed to succeed. The era in which a terrorist group held an entire nation hostage is coming to an end.

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: Iran would rather invest in the rapists and murderers of Hamas than their own people.

The BBC and these other media outlets should be covering how evil these people are in Iran and the damage they’ve done to people all over the world.

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: Iran has spent millions of dollars sponsoring terrorism all over the world, not improving the life of their people.

That’s why their people are always in the street protesting. Their economy is in shambles because the regime doesn’t invest in their economy.

[Department of State @StateDept]

🚨 SECRETARY RUBIO: The idea that the President is going to agree to a deal that puts Iran in a stronger position on nuclear ambitions is ABSURD. That’s just not going to happen.
