It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve under the leadership of @POTUS and @VP – alongside the incredible public servants at @USUN. I am so proud of all we have accomplished. Together, we have restored America’s leadership in the world, including at the United Nations and…
35 foreign visits. 6 presidential delegations. 16 trips to American cities. Tens of thousands of miles traveled – connecting with people across the country, advocating for U.S. interests in every corner of the globe. It's been an honor.
Over the course of my career, I have tried to to empower others, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds, to achieve their full potential. My advice for today’s young leaders: the ones writing the next chapter of our story ⬇️ state.gov/bureau-of-glob…
I’m proud to have met with 188 Member States during my time at @USUN – because diplomacy is personal, and strengthening relationships with others is how we advance U.S. interests and international peace and security.
Since Hamas set this horrific conflict into motion, I've met with dozens of families whose loved ones have been held hostage in Gaza. I promised we would never stop working for the release of their fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters. The deal announced yesterday reflects…
Grateful for the chance to sit down with @_hudsonc at @CSIS to reflect on the Biden-Harris Administration's efforts to strengthen our ties with African nations – and address devastating conflicts, including the civil war in Sudan.
The ceasefire and hostage deal @POTUS announced is the product of intensive American diplomacy. It will halt the fighting in Gaza, help Palestinians begin to recover and rebuild, and reunite hostages with their loved ones. After so much heartbreak, it also offers Israelis and…
Today, after many months of intensive diplomacy by the United States, along with Egypt and Qatar, Israel and Hamas have reached a ceasefire and hostage deal. My diplomacy never ceased in their efforts to get this done – I will speak more about this soon.
In the past four years, President Biden has used America's power to bring countries together. To increase shared security and prosperity, stand up to aggression, and solve problems through diplomacy. And to relentlessly defend democracy, civil rights, and human rights.
Honored to be on hand as @POTUS looks back at the foreign policy accomplishments of the past four years. Tune in ⬇️
Happening Now: President Biden delivers a foreign policy address on how his Administration has strengthened America at home and around the world.
Today was my last day at the @USUN New York office, and the team surprised me on my way out. Overwhelmed with gratitude. It's been an honor to serve alongside these tremendous public servants.
Shocked to see the images coming out of Los Angeles from family, friends, and colleagues. During a 2023 visit to LA, I met with local college students, a resettled refugee family from Afghanistan, and engaged the Los Angeles Diplomatic Corps. I hold them, their loved ones, and…
After a careful review of the facts and a comprehensive legal analysis, @SecBlinken has determined that members of the Rapid Support Forces and allied militias have committed genocide in Sudan. Today, we also imposed sanctions on RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo for his pivotal…
Sudan is experiencing one of the worst human crises – not only of the day, but of our lifetimes. At least five areas are currently experiencing famine. Both military factions must facilitate the establishment of humanitarian hubs to support the flow of aid – and cease all…
I’m very saddened to learn of President Carter’s passing in his home state of Georgia. As a graduate student, I traveled to Washington for his inauguration – and fondly remember his historic visit to Liberia. His legacy and commitment to humanitarian causes will be remembered…
Today, America and the world lost an extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian.
When I was growing up, Kwanzaa was a special time of reflection with family and friends. Let us carry the wisdom of the seven principles with us as we work to build a brighter future. Happy Kwanzaa.
Happy Hannukah! May this holiday season bring peace and light to all who celebrate.
Wishing all those who celebrate a very Merry Christmas! I feel blessed to be spending the holidays with family, including my three rambunctious grandchildren.
Today, the UN Security Council adopted a resolution to strengthen the Children and Armed Conflict mandate. We are proud to do our part to improve the international community’s child protection capacities. usun.usmission.gov/explanation-of…
