Congratulations to Khalilur Rahman of Bangladesh on his election as UN General Assembly President for the 81st session. As host country, the United States looks forward to working together to get the UN back to basics—refocusing on international peace, driving efficiency, and delivering tangible results over empty declarations.

The United States is rallying international action at the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice with a strong message: countries must do more to disrupt transnational sextortion of children, a crime with real-life consequences that shatters futures.  The United States is leading efforts to protect American children, strengthen cross-border law enforcement cooperation, and hold offenders accountable. #CCPCJ35

SECRETARY RUBIO: "Our foreign policy is one that's solely focused on the national interests of the United States of America."

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: "If there are such tragic cases happening, and I'm sure there are around the world, it's not because we're not spending enough money. It's because the rest of the world is not spending enough money."

Criminals who target children online should have nowhere to hide.

At the #CCPCJ35, the United States is calling for international action that delivers real results to protect American children and families against transnational organized crime.

[U.S. Mission to the UN (Vienna) @usunvie]

At the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, the United States called for urgent international action against the transnational sextortion of children.

With American families paying close attention—families who have lost their children to this crime—the United States honored their grief, their courage, and their call for accountability. We will continue working to protect children, pursue predators, and urge governments and platforms to do more to prevent these tragedies. #CCPCJ35

The path is clear:  Hizballah stops attacking Israel. 

The Lebanese Armed Forces and the legitimate Government of Lebanon assert control over Lebanese territory. 

And Iran stops using Lebanon as a forward operating base. 

And the Lebanese people, who have suffered for far too long, finally get a chance to rebuild a country that belongs to them—not Hizballah, not its thug leadership, and certainly not to Tehran.

Met with Romanian FM @oana_toiu following the reckless Russian drone strike on a Romanian apartment building. The violence must end before more innocent people suffer.

The United States and 10 partners issued a joint statement reaffirming that the UN Security Council 1718 Committee is mandated to hold accountable those who violate sanctions on the DPRK. Swift action on vessel designations is essential to preserve the UN sanctions regime's credibility.

The U.S. is proud to be the largest financial contributor to the Ebola response effort. @StateDept’s assistance commitment to combat the outbreak has exceeded $162 million and is growing, enabling implementing organizations to expand the ongoing response in Africa.

[U.S. Mission Geneva @usmissiongeneva]

The @UN humanitarian system needs reform – and the 🇺🇸 is leading the way.  We’re changing how humanitarian assistance is delivered to improve accountability and eliminate redundancy. #BackToBasics delivers life-saving results.

[U.S. Mission to the UN (Vienna) @usunvie]

The United States leads the way at the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice #CCPCJ35 this week by advancing American priorities: protecting children, countering transnational crime, strengthening law enforcement cooperation, and making Americans safer.    @StateINL @State_IO

[Under Secretary of State Thomas G. DiNanno @UnderSecT]

The failure of States Parties to produce an agreed outcomes document from the 2026 NPT Review Conference is regrettable and alarming. Serial violators such as Iran must not be allowed to become a barrier to the functioning of this crucial international body. https://t.co/KSiFinNI9Q

The latest mass strikes against Kyiv by Russia are an inexplicable, dangerous and barbaric escalation. Deliberate attacks against civilians are obscene and unacceptable. The United States extends its deepest sympathies to all those affected. - Ambassador Tammy Bruce

[USUNRome @USUNRome]

Outrageous. Humanitarian facilities and workers are off limits. Hunger is not a weapon of war. - Ambassador Blanchard

[USUNRome @USUNRome]

Ambassador Blanchard: “American agriculture is our top priority! The U.S. agriculture industry @USDairyExporter, @FarmBureau, @CropLifeAmerica, @NASDAnews, and many others agree. Together, we support @LukeJLindberg for WFP Executive Director and strong leadership and reforms at @WFP and @fao."

Sport at its best rewards excellence, fair competition, and trust.

At the @UN, the United States, through the expertise of the @FBI, demonstrates leadership in investigating corruption, protecting the integrity of global sport, and defending the rule of law.

The United States is leading by example: championing fair competition, safeguarding the game, and bringing accountability where corruption threatens sport.

As part of the U.S. three-pronged campaign at the @ITU, the U.S. proudly supports Jennifer Warren's election to the Radio Regulations Board. Her regulatory expertise in spectrum management will help ensure global connectivity and use of spectrum worldwide.

[U.S. Mission to the UN (Vienna) @usunvie]

Not everyone is who they say they are online. The United States is working to protect children from sextortion, a growing crime harming children in the United States and around the world.

That’s why at this year’s Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, the United States is putting forward a resolution to help make our children safer. We are fighting against this despicable crime as a global law enforcement priority, driving stronger international cooperation and deeper engagement with the private sector to disrupt these networks and protect our children.

Protecting children comes first.

The U.S. delegation was proud to represent the American people at the @ITU Council. As a long-standing, committed member of the organization, strong U.S. leadership is critical to driving practical reforms for a more transparent, efficient ITU focused on digital growth, strengthening relationships with our allies, and driving new innovation.
