America first doesn't mean America alone. A strong Europe is vital to a future of economic prosperity and security. At The Mentor Group’s Washington Forum, we discussed aligning U.S.-EU trade, modernizing regulatory frameworks, and strengthening economic security through the rule of law.

Today, @SecRubio and Lithuania signed an MOU to secure critical mineral supply chains that strengthen our economies and our national defense. Lithuania uses critical minerals to supply crucial components to trusted partners across our economies. Thank you, Foreign Minister @BudrysKestutis, for Lithuania's partnership.

Excited to advance the commitments made by our countries at @POTUS Trump's historic peace summit. Here in Yerevan, I am thrilled to announce that, working with Congress, we plan to provide $145 million in assistance for Armenia, which marks the first major step toward making TRIPP a reality. Enjoyed productive discussions on our shared goals for expanding regional connectivity and economic investment.

Great momentum here in Baku as we begin implementing President Trump’s historic peace summit. Excellent discussions with Foreign Minister @Bayramov_Jeyhun, Economy Minister @MikayilJabbarov, Energy Minister @ParvizShahbazov, and Digital Development and Transport Minister @RashadNNabiyev on the launch of our bilateral working group and expanding our cooperation on regional connectivity, economic investment, and security cooperation.

Very pleased to join @StateDRL and @CounselorDOS Michael Needham at the 2025 Reindustrialize Summit in Detroit, where I was part of a panel on strengthening U.S. workers for national security. I enjoyed a good discussion about our new #USWorkersFirst Policy!

I am headed to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Kosovo following productive conversations in Dayton and Washington. It is an important anniversary and pivotal time in the Western Balkans. I look forward to reinforcing ties between the U.S. and countries in the region.

Thank you Kosovo!
