Powerful speech by @SecRubio in Athens yesterday. I recommend it to anyone who cares about the future of the West and ensuring the future of our shared U.S.-European heritage built on freedom, faith, courage, and the rule of law. As the Secretary noted, "We are at a crossroads. ... We will either choose to act now or lose the choice to act at all."

Three years ago today, Hamas terrorists unleashed unimaginable brutality against innocent Israelis.  It was the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. Since then, Jewish communities have faced hatred, intimidation, and violence on a scale we have not seen in generations. We cannot be silent. We must confront antisemitism wherever it appears and hold accountable those who promote or perpetrate it. Jewish people must be able to live freely and safely, without fear. We pray for the victims, their families, and the survivors. We stand with Israel. And we stand against antisemitism.

These time capsules are a powerful symbol of 250 years of history, friendship, and shared sacrifice between our two great nations. Our joint values will continue to guide our partnership for generations to come.

Proud of the excellent collaboration with UK authorities on the situation near RAF Fairford. In the face of threats from hostile actors, our two countries are working together to keep our citizens safe, at home and abroad.

President Trump has made clear that international organizations must get back to basics and that U.S. participation in them must be aligned with America’s interests.  With @IMOHQ, we are doing just that. A year ago, the IMO was considering a global tax that would have hurt American businesses. Today, we are making a historic contribution to reaffirm the safety, security, and freedom of the seas that sustain the global economy. I was happy to host Secretary-General Dominguez and colleagues last night to announce our new $5.4 million voluntary commitment, which will go a long way toward protecting global shipping, ports, and coastal trade against evolving threats, ensuring the IMO’s focus on its core work of bolstering maritime security globally.

Great to welcome Vice Admiral Richard Seif, Commander, U.S. Submarine Forces. We discussed the depth of the U.S.-UK defense partnership and the recent collaboration with our AUKUS allies in developing technologies which will provide greater undersea security and deterrence.

This is a historic milestone for the U.S., UK, and AUKUS. The @USNavy and @RoyalNavy successfully test launched an exercise U.S. Mk 48 torpedo from an unmanned UK undersea vehicle in Scotland. American and British technology and capabilities working together to deliver the interoperability that will make AUKUS a formidable alliance.

A warm and friendly first meeting between @POTUS @RealDonaldTrump and Prime Minister @andyburnham at the United Nations. From trade and energy to security and confronting shared threats, the U.S. and UK are working together on the world stage.

Harriet and I found it incredibly moving to join our British friends last week in remembering the events and victims of 9/11 at Lloyd’s of London's beautiful service. If you need proof of the profound and unbreakable bond between the United States and United Kingdom, look no further than our financial sectors in the wake of 9/11. My thanks to everyone who shared their powerful recollections of that tragic day, and to the Lloyd’s choir for their stirring rendition of “God Bless America.”  Watch the full service here: youtube.com/live/qB_SFKmWbiU

On September 13, 2001, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II made history by directing the U.S. National Anthem to be played during the Changing of the Guard, the first time another nation’s anthem had been played during the ceremony. Today, Harriet and I were honored to witness that tribute repeated to mark the 25th anniversary of 9/11. We are deeply grateful to the Royal Family and the British people for standing with the United States in our time of need, and for the enduring friendship between our two nations.

At 8:46am EST, alongside my team at @USAinUK, we paused to remember the lives lost 25 years ago.

This morning Harriet and I commemorated September 11 by paying our respects at the permanent memorial in Grosvenor Square, a reminder of the way our British friends stood alongside us in one of our nation’s darkest hours. We will never forget the lives lost and those whose lives were forever changed by the attacks.

Harriet and I were honored to join Sir Charles Roxburgh at the @LloydsofLondon 9/11 Remembrance Service. The private sector played a leading role in the wake of the attacks, demonstrating solidarity, supporting families, communities, and companies most affected on both sides of the Atlantic, while keeping the global economy moving forward.

Harriet and I were proud to stand with our British allies and invited guests on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, to remember those we lost and those whose lives were forever changed. We dedicated a memorial stone and were moved by the Embassy’s commemorative exhibit displaying items left by the British public in solidarity in the aftermath of the attacks. Twenty five years later, our nations continue to stand together.
